Title: New Cherry MX $12
Post by: SCTony on Wed, 25 November 2009, 21:50:00
This says MX SPOS and the label reads Article No.: G80-6241DEUADSA but also reads Catalog No.: G86-6241DEUADSA.  The Model No. reads MX SPOS so this is probably G80 series with black switches? What do you think? Extra Fn Keys and card reader. Several available new-in-box.

It looks like some research on this site, cites the G86 boards as rubber dome.  The layout looks nice though!

What about the MX in the model name? Would that indicate MX switches or no?

I put a question in to seller. Maybe he will check.

missed out on a new G81-7000 on ebay just now actually.  i know someone on here won it.  wanted it just for the keys, of course, per ripster's guidance... but it went to about $30 shipped by the end. too rich for me, for keys.  maybe would have bought it anyway had they been of the design that allows rearranging to colemak without weird height changes.  but now that i mention it, i dont know that they dont, its filco that is like that.  damnit.  might have been the one for me.

Probably a mistake by the seller.
