Hey all,
another fella in the German Forum where I'm active just posted this pic of his 1 month old Sidewinder X4:
Sadly I have to agree that I saw some wear on one of my more used keys in the ESDF cluster quite shortly after purchase on my own X4, too.
I don't know about you guys but when it comes to rubber domes and relatively cheap boards with lots of features, I always recommend the Sidewinder X4 (while leaving no good hair on any logitech or razer keyboard available). Considering this extreme key wear, I might have to defer from that and exclusively suggest cherry g80-3000 for the limited budget and tell anyone else to cough up the 100€ and buy a real keyboard.
Shame, really. Because the Sidewinder X4 seemed to be THE solution for people who wanted a decently priced board with some proper keyboard functionality like rollover...
