I'm sure there's a thread about it out there somewhere.

But the 980M is superior anyway so there's that.

Oh this is my favorite board ever, but with the disclaimer that I have only tried Cherry variants (and Logitech).

Picked up a Gateron V60 after not using it for a long time and the super "cheap" keycaps are super responsive with the lighter switches.

Leopold FC660M- my new favorite, right out of the box.

Haven't been able to commit to 60-65% form factor for a daily driver.  I did just get an FC750R PD with MX Red switches and it's a big upgrade from my Corsair K70 with MX Reds :) I'd be all over the FC660 series if they came in a wireless format.

I can use any layout with arrows, of course, and the FC660 is almost a sixty percent one, which is good, however, I have found that having the arrows under the home row is much better just by using the space bar as an Fn key, which rocks, no unnecessary movements there. I sold my FC660 a couple of years ago, I really have no need for arrows now. By the way, I hated the need for a second 2.25u shift key, I was always whining to GB leaders for one, it was so frustrating and embarrassing.

I too only use one shift key.  I like the arrow keys in the home row function layer.  However if you are stuffing your face or something and you just want to peck with one finger, the dedicated keys are nice.  I'd like it to have both actually, but I don't think this exists anywhere.

The Leopold Mini is my favorite layout alongside that of the HHKB.

I agree that the combo Fn is a bit off place when someone just needs to pick and peck. But it works well for text editing and general stuff, for the other situations I use the mouse and I think it works pretty well, most cases.
