Welcome, I hope the typhoon is not affecting you much!
Wow starting out with the HHKB Pro! It's a bold move Cotton lets see how it works out for him! :p
Filipino here! WOOO!
Mabuhay! Nice board you got there, it's currently top on my want to buy list :))
Nope! I am in California but all my relatives are over there! I am much closer to the US capital for filipinos, Daly City. LOL
Welcome to GH! :cool:
Filipino here too! :thumb: (I'm in the south of the metro...changed my location because of the Secret Santa).
Anyway, congrats on the HHKB! #WalletHack
Thanks! :D Know anyone in the country whom I can buy topre keycaps or custom braided cable or right angle mini usb connector. I've been searching for a while now but haven't found any :(

Topre caps...nope. There's only one other guy I know with an HHKB but I don't think he has caps to sell.
Custom cables...none locally. Well, there are some guys from TipidPC doing sleeving but I've never tried them out. If you want to order a cable from Pexon (https://geekhack.org/index.php?board=146.0), let me know I've been meaning to place another order and maybe we can combine our orders and split shipping? But after the holidays...PhilPost is busy "inspecting" packages.
Right angle converter like this (http://pexonpcs.co.uk/products/right-angled-mini-usb-adapter)?
Welcome to Geekhack. Filipino here too, if you plan to purchase a set of keycaps for your HHKB from Japan please let me know. I'm planning to change my white blank keycap, I just missed printed keycaps. It adds characters to the HHKB(pun intended). :D
Welcome!
nice board
I'm currently in Manila in my wife's place. I guess it is our place, but I work in Kuwait. (American, married to a filipina) Anyway, where exactly can I go and buy nice keyboards such as yours here? Currently using a WASDkeyboard, but if I can get some place and check out some keyboards, it would be nice. Also, it's nice to see I am not the only one with insomnia.
Welcome to GH!
First buy Topre and the HHKB. You definitely don't like to do like everyone else :D
I should join you soon in the Topre world. Well I hope so but I'll go for the Novatouch first. I'll see for a 60% later.
Welcome to Geekhack!
Filipino here as well :D
You sir just saved yourself a lot of money by going for what many believe to be one of the best boards.
One of the nicest guys on this forum and one of my best pals on this forum is also from the Philipines, ∞
Edit: Looks like you've already met him.

I'm currently in the US, but I was born there in the Philippines. Moved here few years ago. I'm glad to see a growing keyboard enthusiast in the Philippines. Would love to meet local geekhackers as well when I visit manila

LOL I was going to say that one of the best ways of finding others in your country is to suggest arranging a meetup :)

Actually just got home from the mini meet up. infinity finally got to try topre as he said, now all that's left is to make him want to buy one >:D
He gave me a right angle mini usb connector, so nice of him. You got my vote for that novatouch! ( if you win it I'll buy the mx compatible sliders from you :P )

For some, Topre is an acquired taste. Because it is so different to MX, many people are meh with it until they use it for a week or two and then try to switch back to MX.

True! I just found out yesterday actually. There's so much difference between the two but actually for me I prefer topre over mx. But if ever I get mx I'll be getting blues with greens. Dat addicting clicky @.@
