Cherry G80-3800
« on: Mon, 19 March 2012, 07:36:23 »
Was wondering if we could get G80-3800 in US/Canada or Europe.

Any link whereby i can get it?

The G80-3800 seems cool with low profile :)

I thought it is a Asia only product? Singapore distributor is able to get it, no?

You can try Amazon.
http://www.amazon.com/Cherry-G80-3000-Keyboard-CROSSPOINT-KEYSWITCHES/dp/B0065Q5DXM/ref=sr_1_1?s=office-products&ie=UTF8&qid=1332249290&sr=1-1

Cherry is an European brand, it's definitely not an Asian only product so I'm sure you can find it in NA/Europe.

It's in the EU market as well? I thought it's only available in the Chinese market, since I guess this keyboard is Chinese distributor's contribution. They wanna get something cheaper than G80-3000, meanwhile they want it made from Germany. Most Chinese don't like the goods made in China. Ok fine, including me. And you know why.

The few ppl above mistook it as normal G80-3000 I think...
BTW, the board should be "designed in Germany, made in China", so still count as Made In China right?

Oh right! How could I forget that little trick! It's actually made in China. But the Chinese distributor wanted to get more attention in the Chinese market, and the "designed in Germany" is exactly what will catch people's eyes in China.

I'd love to know where to get this keyboard, I live in EU so would be awesome if someone knows how to get a hold of one.
I've googled some and only came to chinese pages that was really hard to understand with google translate.

Found this: http://search.taobao.com/search?q=cherry+g80-3800&from=rs&navlog=rs-2-q-cherry+g80-3800&rels_k=0&initiative_id=staobaoz_20120229
But seems like they only ship within asia, if I understood the translation right.

So far, it only stated for Asia market. Though, it do seems like they also aim for SEA(South East Asia) market too as I saw those languages on the packaging(different packaging from China version).

BTW, I got mine already(I am from SEA). Will update with the review of it when I am free.
