How many KUL threads do we need?

This is also available to preorder from mechanicalkeyboards.com

And amazon.com has a few versions also.

And I can't read ...are the MX blacks a new thing for this board?

Yes, I don't think EK or Amazon had blacks when they were first listed for sale.

Wonder if anyone would trade a KUL for a phantom?

Is KUL really that great? I was thinking of buying one but at around $150 (CA tax and Shipping included) I don't know if it would be worth it. Should I just wait until the Duck Viper/Eagle GB comes around to build my own kb?

Get a KUL. It's honestly better than a Filco. I love mine.
