This has cherry switches of some sort in it.

Great, thanks for sharing! Just ordered two of this pads... ^^
Tried to get em elsewhere for some time (also from Genovation directly), but it would have cost at least twice as much!

Black?
Well, that's the first thing I'll do, painting the case black and replacing the caps with black ones, lol!

I find it odd that this site has the unit for a third of the price, Fentek for example sells it for more than $140.

Any other keypads out there that also have 35 keys but are somewhat cheaper than $150?

Fully functional item that has been tested and refurbished. It could be packaged in a generic white/brown box or original retail box. Some imperfections are possible. No deep scratches or dents.

And as I paint it black anyway minor scratches are no problem...

Just received the two keypads I ordered, and now I know whats "wrong" with em... It's just the color! Instead of beige/light-grey, like on the pictures, they are dark grey, actually the same grey as the reply options box of this forum, lol. Perhaps they added too much color to one of their batches? Doesn't matter. I dislike beige anyway, dark grey is much cooler, also I already planed to spray-paint em black... Will post images and/or review late! :)
