Title: HHKB Professional 2 Keycaps
Post by: Angelwork on Tue, 08 October 2013, 19:11:50
Do keycaps exist for the HHKB Pro 2?  I'm really tempted to get one since I've seen so many excellent reviews and I'm growing tired of my Razer BWU.  I'm just wondering if I'll be stuck with the OEM caps, or if I can decorate it with at least some nice colorful, blank PBT caps.

You can buy black and white/gray sets for the HHKB, the RF set will get you everything except the correct profile of the short right shift.

That's the truth.

It's like buying a luxury car, even the parts are expensive :(
