Title: New Keyboard.
Post by: Shuki on Sat, 29 August 2009, 07:56:16
My keyboard finally arrived from ParcelForce (would have been sooner but had to find some extra cash for the customs charge :/ ).

(http://dl.getdropbox.com/u/212931/keyboard.jpg)

It's very nice to type on but I am still getting used to playing games on it. The tactility of the keyboard was actually a lot more than I was expecting. I can feel a pronounced bump on every key whether I press it quickly or slowly. This felt a bit strange the first time I was wasding but I am slowly getting used to it.

This will do until I can get a hold of a keyboard with cherry reds :D This keyboard layout with cherry reds would definitely be my dream keyboard.

Edit btw it's a Filco Majestouch FKBN104M/EB

Ive got the same keyboard at the moment, without the numpad though. But what's that mousepad of yours?

It should be the PureTrak Talent.

Yeh it's a PureTrak Talent. Easily the best cloth mousepad on the market right now and it seems to be extremely durable as well. 48cm*35cm so it's quite big so probably wouldn't be great on a small desk. If you like cloth mousemats however you definitely wouldn't regret buying one. Especially if you live in the states as then you won't even have to pay extra for the delivery. Either way it's well worth the money.

I got a good old Wallace & Gromit pad that's lasted for over 15 years.
