Nice deal. Shame how mediocre they are.
He's also selling this item. Someone will probably hate me for this:

It's the second time I see this. Is there something superior to beige model Ms, as compared to black ones?

See my sig for a link to a review and lots of pics.
There just isn't right now a lot of decent Tenkeyless Compact keyboard alternatives out there. The layout is pretty good and it even has arrow keys that the HHKB does not.
Plus, I just think it looks spiffy.Show Image(http://geekhack.org/attachment.php?attachmentid=10037&stc=1&d=1274017393)
I paid like $30 versus $300 for a HHKB.
No no. I was talking about the casing, and I was talking about the aesthetics of it. I'm not entirely convinced that there's any difference in feel between various years of Model Ms.

$115 for the M4-1. Pretty decent price for the seller even with the included numpad.

I suppose he's an European Geekhack member.
That guy again? Hate him. Outbid me on ......
when you consider that you could get a nib space saving keyboard for around the same price [$115], i think someone got screwed...
Now that I've given you a few clues, go seek him out and spam his message inbox.
Description doesn't tell me much. Did Cherry Corp do "specials" or is this a mod?
