Keytronic keyboards in Canada
« on: Sat, 09 October 2010, 22:19:31 »
Do any of you know where I can buy Keytronic keyboards in Canada? I don't need one myself, but I can suggest them to friends and family members who would like a decent keyboard without having to spend a huge amount of money.

Compunation in Ottawa sells them (nice selection of them as well). Unfortunately, I've been to the store, and you have to order virtually anything you see on that site.

I take requests for making keyboard converters (i.e. *old keyboard* to USB).

Do all Keytronic keyboards feel the same or are some better than the others? They have so many different keyboards.

I don't know, but I do reccomend the model in my sig. It has a really nice feel.
It's actually the only Keytronic I've used.

This means that most of their keyboards are quite good. I have tried the E06101 one and it was quite nice.

I have an old LT Designer which I like.


I just picked up a used black Keybronics trackball.
Will probably like it as well but as I haven't used it much can't really say yet from adequate first hand experience.

Actually, I live in Kitchener too :P (I go to UW). I was in Japan for a year though, and was in BC for a few months in the summer.

This confirms what I thought. Keytronic makes good rubber dome keyboards.
