http://imgur.com/a/tgShh#2Finally came today... in hair-covered bubble wraps, but that's probably to be expected of free shipping from China. Dunno if that's how it is from AliExpress or what, but hey the keyboard is protected fine!
It is pretty much what i've been looking for, a stronger, firmer Brown, and this delivers that in spades.
It does have a few weird quirks i've not seen before:
Why only LEDs for ESC, WASD and arrow keys? I've not seen this LED configuration before.
The extra 4 keys above numpad: some calc shortcut, something that looked like Sleep, does Ducky have the same 4 key config?
If Aliexpress CAN have a Clears keyboard in stock, but somehow no other places does like Amazon, is it something in Asia that they can get Clears somehow and we can't? I'm wondering on that.
