Title: Help me find a keyboard (first time buyer)
Post by: HybridUnicorn on Thu, 30 May 2013, 08:03:37

Anyone know a good keyboard with Nordic layout (preffably norwegian), tenkeyless and brown switches?
I have considered http://www.keyboardco.com/keyboard_details.asp?PRODUCT=939 with http://www.keyboardco.com/keyboard_details.asp?PRODUCT=979
Or a Ducky Shine 2 that i cant seem to find.
And i dont want a cm storm.
A 60% keyboard is also fine too, though i think thats harder to find.
+ Try to keep it under the 150$.

EDIT 17.04.13 - Buying within EU on any of our items
If you like any of our items and wish to get a price and a delivery charge quote you can drop an inquiry to ducky at teraset.net email address. This is a very nice reseller that is willing to do shipping within EU. They are fast, efficient and very helpful folk.
If you want to reserve a limited qty item that is arriving in near future you can do that as well. They will keep a list with the reservations.

Har nettopp begynt med mekaniske tastatur selv og bruker ansi utlegg siden det er så lett tilgjengelig. Krever litt tilvending i begynnelsen men det går seg til. Skriver dette innlegget med en Poker II.

EDIT: For those that don't speak Norwegian I'm just telling him that the difference is not a big deal.

I'm a bit to new to the mechanical scene to give any specific recommendations, but I would take a look at what Qtan has to offer at
http://www.vendio.com/stores/E-sports-Gaming-equipments/ (http://www.vendio.com/stores/E-sports-Gaming-equipments/)

He's based in china and the shipping to Norway is very cheap unlike a lot of other sites based in other countries.
