I was thinking about getting a white one, would you recommend these? And if you have one how do you like it?

Noppoo Choc Mini's are pretty decent keyboards.  I've had two.  One with black switches and one with red switches which I'm currently selling.  The layout isn't for everyone though since some of the keys (namely Home, End, and Insert) require you press a Fn key to use them.

I got a white one with the blues from qtan and I like it alot. The white one I have has pbt caps and would take care of the issues from the black ones with shining. ( I don't know if all the white ones have pbt though)
Going from a Filco TKL w/ browns I still am using the Choc Mini currently. The layout difference is barely noticeable after a week or so and I really love the media/fn keys that the Filco lacks.

One thing to consider is if you want to do any key customization (RGB sets) that the modifiers are different sized than any other keyboard.
