The ONLY dealbreaker in my opinion is that the GHB keys need to be modified to work with other keysets. I don't even know how that's done, if it has.

Can anyone tell me how those mouse buttons feel?
I have never used mouse buttons that travel so far.

Has anyone has success with loading their own firmware onto this?  Because I would really like to load some custom programmable firmware onto this.

I second this question!   I asked on Massdrop if this was possible with the "USB upgrade" feature, but haven't gotten a response yet.
