So I took my HHKB home and started using it on my Mac. Works like a treat. I have since learned the arrow keys, and that's about all I use on the Mac. Most other navigation I do with Ctrl sequences (^a beginning of line, ^e end of line and so on).
Basically, HHKB looks cute..
Now when it comes to using it.. You have to get around the limitations by setting up layers via software.. because the hardware layering is clumsy and not optimal..
I've always been against minimalism on keyboards because there are ALWAYS situations where just a few more re-mappable keys will come in handy..
I also use UK ISO (albeit with an ISO HHKB layout) and switching to ANSI is whats putting me off getting an HHKB. Why oh why dont they just make an ISO version? Its not hard.
Thats what I have! I just wish custom Topre keyboards were possible/easier. Or better yet, this layout with Buckling Spring.

The HHKB is like a girl with a hot body with no brains. You may enjoy her company for a night or two, but it would be dead boring for any time after, and she likes to do anything in her own way.
If you really wanted an ISO HHKB then your best bet would be the HHKB JP.Damn that HHKB JP is the hotness.
It has an ISO enter as well as a **** ton of other keys.
Which doesn't have Topre switches. LelI also use UK ISO (albeit with an ISO HHKB layout) and switching to ANSI is whats putting me off getting an HHKB. Why oh why dont they just make an ISO version? Its not hard.
You can get the GON Happy under $400 with an ISO layout in HHKB style.

Somehow I doubt you've ever actually experienced that yourself.
True: I have never been with a bimbo. :))

Keep the misogynistic crap to yourself, eh?

Whenever I see one for sale on DT it sells in a couple of days...

The possibility to re-sell a HHKB is the best motivation to get one? interesting :))

Who said it was the best motivation? It's just reassuring to know that if you fail to adapt to the layout or the switches you can get most of your money back. It's just a safety net, that's all.

What is DT? I'm trying to sell one right now.

The best board is the one I want to keep using. Isn't it?
No, wait, pay for something just for the sake of trying it, just be sure there is a "market" of people that want to do the same thing. :p Don't care at all about wasting time, nor money, this is a hobby after all, so the most time and money you waste the better (!?)

But how can you know which board is for you if you don't try them out?

There used to be something called common sense, and other thing called basic principles of Economy. Or, we are in a distorted field where those myths do not apply anymore?

Like most of your replies that makes absolutely no sense whatsoever.
If someone wants to buy a keyboard to try and they have the means to do so why not? They may or may not like it however if they never try it they won't know if it is the one for them.
True they can make an educated guess based on all of the feedback found in this forum to get a good idea of what keyboard might work best for them but ultimately some things are only learned through experience.

However, it is true as well that some products just do not provide a surplus -a value in excess- for the money you pay for them. In the other hand, buyer's remorse compensates for bad decisions, most of the time.

Methinks someone needs to spend a month with a HHKB. I had major doubts and thought it was Kool-Aid until I borrowed one. Now it's my go to board at home while I'm running Ergo Clears at work.

What makes a certain switch type a unique aspect of life? Its just a type of keyboard. Try one, and I am sure you will like it. If not, sell it and get another type. That's all there is to it..

A good friend lent me his keyboard for almost four months; I really tried to like it, but I just never got into it, its aesthetics is great though, and the sound is nice.
