I was thinking about picking one of these up, preferably with Cherry MX Reds. I did some looking around and couldn't seem to find anything good. For me a standard keyboard layout is important, something like a CMStorm Quickfire except wireless.
Anyone have suggestions?
I did find something interesting, Rapoo KX. It's not Cherry and has some sort of other mechanical switches.

Thanks in advance to anyone with info/feedback.

If you want a standard TKL MX and wireless then I think Neo Zelia is the only one.

I think they use Kailh switches as Rapoo has used them in some other boards as well.

Look closely at the switch housing in the picture...it's a Kailh PG1511.

It's 75%, I guess dedicated arrow keys might be important to you but at least it's cherry

Matias also offers wireless mechanical keyboard. There are Secure Pro which needs an extra USB port for the receiver, and Laptop Pro which connects via Bluetooth but only works on Mac.

Thanks for the feedback guys. Good stuff.

As CTM said, the Matias Secure Pro is wireless and uses what they call Quiet Click Alps-like key switches. Here's one link:
