Wow!  Come a long way from novelty keycaps, haven't we?  Very nice.

I'm really excited about this one...my newsletter may have sounded a little car salesman like, but its just because I have been loving this board so much.

Man, you guys are firing on all cylinders. It seems like every week or two, you're introducing new products. Nicely done!

You really like it? I think KeyboardLover posted a review about it and said that the keycaps were a bit on the thin side. What do you think? I love the idea of this keyboard ... how well does it switch over to other BT devices? Oh, and thanks for the keyboard brush freebie with my last order! I think the marketing you've done for your site is excellent, BTW.

I own one of these as well.  I use it at work as we have a "no hands on phone" rule.  I can control my PC and phone with one device.  It's great how well the Bluetooth responds.

Fine keyboard.  My keys are being replaced as they were defective.  Honestly I'm going to throw a DSA retro set on this beast.

Yeah, replacing the keycaps was something I figured I could do too -- I have a BT-capable android phone and tablet --- how realistic is it for me to be swapping back and forth between them? Is it really workable?

Each BT device is sync'd to a number on the numpad.  Press FN + 1 you flip to that device.  Press FN + 2 and you flip to the other

No hands on phone would be nice. At my work if you have your phone on your desk, in your hand, or making noise anywhere. You get in ****.

Yeah I just got the email today about this NEW keyboard.  Now that Techkeys has stepped into the Big Leagues, I was always crazy about Filco's, but now........ this may be the new model fetish.

Just now trying to pick between some Blues or Browns.

Cool Stuff, I'm sure there are those who would like this

i just wish it was 75% or 60% so i could travel with something like this. I also hate full size boards in general....

Aren't there already the Pure's and Race's that are currently selling?

I've got some of them hence this current BIG baby seems the most appropriate now.  Besides I miss not having a FULL keyboard again.

I think he means he wants bluetooth capabilities as well(no wires required during traveling)  :p

i have a race i travel with as well as my poker (which now weighs like 5lbs lol) and i also have my HHKB but i don't travel with it as it screams "steal me", but IMO the wire from them to my laptop looks more silly than the fact i put it on top of my laptop's keyboard. Bluetooth would be nice on a 60% i also wish my trackball had bluetooth.

oh well, sorry to derail. carry on

I agree with the comments above - I have gone off full-size keyboards completely.  TKL or smaller and I would be very interested :D  Also they aren't cheap but I suppose you have to pay for the extra (very cool) features
