Title: How much longer before we can get our hands on a Leopold FC750R?
Post by: i-c on Thu, 10 April 2014, 08:10:19: The only ones available are located in South Korea as of right now, and would take 2-3 weeks to arrive. Will a distrubutor pick it up anytime soon?

Post by: SSIPAK on Thu, 10 April 2014, 08:44:22: I don't think elitekeyboard is interested in picking up 750R so your best bet is to buy them on ebay.

Post by: i-c on Thu, 10 April 2014, 11:55:41: Really? Is there any reason why?

Post by: basspivo on Thu, 10 April 2014, 18:17:28: I would love to get one too. Does it have any volume control function at all?

That wouldn't surprise me I suppose, but what gives you that impression anyway?

I dropped by their showroom couple days ago to pick up some keycaps and I had a good talk with Brian. We did talk about FC750R but he didn't mention anything about selling them. However he did say that they are going to sell this new keyboard from a new company but he couldn't reveal the name just yet. He said it should be up on the site within a month or so.

No it's not novatouch. He was actually using it when I was there and one he had was TKL red switch.
