Title: Is this ErgoDox infinity?
Post by: FinancialWar on Sat, 21 October 2017, 09:29:00: https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Ergodox-Infinity-Keyboard-Cherry-MX-Clear-Aluminium-Assembled/322838306581?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&_trksid=p2060353.m2748.l2649

I bought this ergodox, the title says infinity, but I couldn't tell if it has a LCD since the top plate is not transparent. So from under the Ergodox, can you tell if it a infinity or normal Ergodox?

From the picture of the underside, it looks like an original (i.e. non-Infinity) Ergodox. See this PCB:
