Title: Anyone with a Poker II have this issue?
Post by: motoyuki on Mon, 19 May 2014, 16:57:31: If you look closely, notice any particular gap that is wider than the rest? I'm a bit ocd so this bugs me a bit.

It's certainly not exclusive to Pokers; my Ducky had a huge gap between H & J.

Slight imperfections in the molds I would say, it could be variances in he plate and PCB, too, but that cannot really be fixed (and is rather unlikely). You could get a different spacebar, that might solve the "problem".

Post by: Zeromachina on Tue, 20 May 2014, 07:21:38: Just checked mine over and everything seems to be pretty well even all round. Though ... now..... i notice a little more gap between the enter and shift keys towards the rest of the alphas. And now knowing my head i'll notice it a little every day.
