"Because keyboards are accessories to PC makers, they focus on minimizing the manufacturing costs. But that’s incorrect. It’s in HHKB’s slogan, but when America’s cowboys were in the middle of a trip and their horse died, they would leave the horse there. But even if they were in the middle of a desert, they would take their saddle with them. The horse was a consumable good, but the saddle was an interface that their bodies had gotten used to. In the same vein, PCs are consumable goods, while keyboards are important interfaces." - Eiiti Wada

http://www.pccasegear.com/index.php?main_page=index&cPath=113_1361&zenid=2baba418eaa33e76f2c57b3738c3a353

ETA 05-Nov-2013

RRP $219

MX black, blue, brown, red


Yeah I saw that, ordered the Blue-Switch baby yesterday.  So incredibly sexy looking plus having the all aluminum case is just superb.  I can tell Ducky is going places where very few fear to tread, now if Filco could be this adventurous, maybe they'll sell more keyboards too.

Plus paying $219 (for a whole keyboard) is incredibly cheap compared to buying only a pcb/case for $500+.

I use to hate PCCG in the past but now they're my MOST favourite PC retailer in Australia, with fairly cheap shipping from Victoria.

I've had no problems with them.

I won't be getting a YotS - saving up for a yellow Ducky - if PCCG gets them in.

Why does this board go for such a "high" price ?

Limited edition - each one is numbered, and only like 999 were made.

Plus it has aluminium case (top).

Rowdy,

any idea if the layout is with the far ENTER or a standard one?
The last pic on PCCG and the video shows the ISO enter where as the first pic looks like its standard.

I could buy for you as proxy as long as you pay me in advance, I am going to order one two, so you could save on shipping fee to my address. From my address to your country, you have to cover it. PM me if you are interested

No idea, sorry.

Description says "Full sized 108 keys with US layout" - so I'm guessing US ANSI layout.

The first picture under the video seems to show ANSI layout.
