I'd like to get one of those fancy tipros.
So far in my research I've found out that this tipro: http://www.ebay.com/itm/TIPRO-SHS-KM032E-001-Keyboard-/181168640709?pt=PCA_Mice_Trackballs&hash=item2a2e7e12c5
only works with either a teensy and at least a day's of work or hook it up to this:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Tipro-SHS-KM12BC-5W-001-Programmable-Keyboard-/331069547968?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item4d154865c0
or this: http://www.ebay.com/itm/TIPRO-SHS-KM12BC-5W-001-PROGRAMMABLE-KEYBOARD-/200984418298?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item2ecb9ad7fa
Is there any other alternative?
Also, does anyone know if http://www.ebay.com/itm/TIPRO-MODUL-SHS-KM032E-RDA-/200984418300?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item2ecb9ad7fc
works with PS2 or is it the same deal as the first tipro?

Value of the 23U shouldn't be anything short of $200 at the moment. Countless number of people in classified that want a 23U.

Tipro is a number pad and it has a LOT of programmable keys

Funny thing is just the other day one sold for $100 ::)
OP just get this and wire it with a teensy and build/find a case for it

I love Tipro keyboards. So many modules and layouts. Programmability in 4 layes is very nice. Good Cherry MB Blacks.
1st link: looks like the Board has already a controller build in (pics of the PS/2 connecter a very dark, but I think there is one). So no need of a teensy.
2nd link: perfect for your personal Matrix Layout
3rd link: yes the same, the cardreader could be easily detached. Here you could see the built in controller for shure.
Some hints:
Software from Tipro works not at Win 64Bit over PS/2.
And you only have 2KRO. But I also use one modul for gaming without issue for me.

You need to hardwire them then, don't you?
