I-T Touch Mechanical Tenkeyless (AS-KB87L)

Anyone familiar with the I-T Touch Mechanical Tenkeyless keyboard?

Saw it at GeekStuff4U HERE.

Also noticed that they have Browns and Zeros (Filco minis) in stock as well.

Teh google machines to the rescue! (yay)

Apparently it's produced by Archiss, that's the cherry black model which you linked.

Also: "Retail list price   　7980 yen(tax included)" Hah. Geekstuff's being nice and only giving you a ~50% markup =P

I like the removal USB cable.  

Maybe these are in the running for EK replacements.

I do like that too, it saves having to re-splice when puppies or other small fostered animals decide to chew through it ^,^

And they have NKRO (which I wish would get marketed more to typists too than just gamers, I've had problems with 2kro when typing fast enough sometimes).

That's a neat thought, if EK were to get them at wholesale and resell them not too far above MSRP, they could be a great deal if they end up actually feeling good.

Very clean, simple layout. I like.

That's the same as the Leopold and so it may be hitting US shores soon.

KBDMania link.  They say "codeveloping" but all that means I bet is the two distributors are buying from the same OEM.

There is more to it than this. It actually was co-developed by Leopold and Archiss. The board design is exclusive and not based on any previous OEM ones.
