This is the CRAPPY Happy Hacking Keyboard lite (http://cgi.ebay.com/PFU-Happy-Hacking-Keyboard-Lite-1-PS-2_W0QQitemZ140373189058QQcmdZViewItemQQptZPCA_Mice_Trackballs?hash=item20aee4e1c2)!!!
Not THE original Happy Hacking keyboard 2 as posted previously, but compare the layout. I assume they both are rubber dome.

HHKB 2  
HHKB Lite 1

If its anything like the rubber domes in the HHKB lite that I have, then I don't think so.

I didn't buy either, wanted the HHKB 2, but seller couldn't give me the cost shipping prior the ending.
 
The HHKB 2 actuation force should be lighter than the lite, now I'm totally confused with switches/forces etc etc etc.

Outside of the layout there isn't much to compare between the two. The lite is somewhat disappointing. Keep saving and get the Pro.
