That's one lean Backspace key as well.

It's a nice looking keyboard for sure, but not for me :(. I have a very hard time with inverted L enter keys.

It's a regular JP 109 board for those who haven't noticed.

Red's my color.  I really like that keyboard!

I've been thinking of modding an AT101W to color it red, gray, and black.  I may still do that, but the Dharma is definitely more high-tech...

The only problems for me with the Dharma would be the enter key and backspace.  I have a hard time if they aren't the long, horizontal kind.

However, I think it would be an awesome non-RTS gaming keyboard.

I like the layout, although I think keys on the bottom row could be wider given the lack of Windows keys. I'm not sure about the red face plate. The JAKi JD002 also has one but it doesn't seem to show (http://www.iqmore.idv.tw/archives/153/2) through very well.

Does anyone know if this board is planning on being sold in the US?  I doubt it, but I just thought I would check since I saw itlnstln was looking into the irocks board availability here.

Chloe, have you seen a place that is selling the Dharma and will ship to the US?
