Thanks :P

How can one change the leds? Do we need to solder it or its just as simple as plug n lit?

Post by: mashby on Mon, 13 May 2013, 17:17:19: Hopefully we'll have the answer next week. MK.com is showing that they'll be getting the Poker II (http://mechanicalkeyboards.com/incoming.php) the week of the 17th.

I was wondering about the plate for a while, and there is finally a clear pic to show that the plate does not support removable switch tops. If there are LEDs, that shouldn't matter anyways.

I think those are Purple laser etched. The "white" is the LED shining through.

Upon further inspection, and help from Halverson and Mashby, I think that those caps are this set (http://mechanicalkeyboards.com/shop/index.php?l=product_detail&p=229). They look great but...Captain wants White on Purple since he only has a Purple LED backlit board. Thanks for the info ^__^

Post by: Lastpilot on Tue, 14 May 2013, 09:39:41: That is beautiful. I know what I'm getting for my birthday this year.

Edit: Also according to PDF manual in this thread (http://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=42554.msg858488#msg858488), there will be a backlit version that comes with ABS caps.

My bet is a preproduction one since the resellers did not get the first batch yet.

I was thinking of a non-led version of the poker (which I'm assuming they would have since they have non-LED pures), but now it's a double whammy, LED + no custom plate
