CHERRY STRAIT Exclusive Testa Motari Edition

One of the KDE devs just got a wood-trim keyboard:

From the pics, this looks like the worst Cherry keyboard ever. It has the huge enter key, the Insert/Delete block is shaped wrong, the function keys are spaced wrong, the media keys are not grouped together, and the wooden "sticker" has no varnish! From the look of the keycaps and the width of the board, I'm not even sure that their are mechanical switches in there. Is this what Cherry is coming to?

God awful? Eh, I think they're pretty good for scissor switches.

That return-key is standard for most European layouts (including German, which this is). From the looks of it (and the fact they claim 10 million keystrokes) it's probably a scissor switch.

I like this new one better... Dialekt-Tastatur G83. Too bad not make these as G81 series at least so G80 compatible caps and case body, would be kind of fun ones. Bunch of different regional German boards,

Sure, but I am a lazy person. Also the Cherry profile has grown on me quite a lot.

If you are handy with Adobe tools I'm sure you could get WASD to make you some.

Can you get a big EU return key from WASD ? I've only seen the small US key on their site.
