Title: Help locating the Hangul Keycaps
Post by: petertho on Thu, 04 April 2013, 22:40:41: Hi everyone,
So I was told IMSTO has korean/hangul keycaps that I could buy but I simply cannot find it on his website (It is absolutely the worst trying to navigate the website with Google Translate!). Can someone please show me all the links to the different sets of the keycaps?

I've seen keycaps like the following: (I would prefer if the legends were a different colour, but if they only come in those colours, then that's fine)

To order just send him a PM or email. Tell him what you want, include your paypal address and he'll send you an invoice. FWIW slower shipping (~2 weeks) costs ~$10, while EMS shipping (4-7 days) costs ~$25.

Also, the Gray and Blue caps come with Red or Blue Hangul, while the White caps only come in Red (I think).
Here's a photo of my Blue w/ Red in case you have not seen them :)

I'm currently undertaking korean lessons (doing Korean language minor). So I'd like to have the korean/hangul keycaps to help me ease into touch typing in korean (the on screen keyboard was nuissance)

Still can't the ones with hangul on them :( I've found similar ones but with no hangul ... totally confused. 미안합니다! (I am sorry :()

I hope IMSTO has a set like this with hangul on it!

You'd be best off sending imsto a PM on the forums asking whether he has them.

Thanks for the help. I've sent a few PMs back and forth with IMSTO, looks like I'll go with the whites keycaps
