Filco tenkeyless Otaku
« on: Tue, 12 April 2011, 16:46:38 »
I already have 3 Filco keyboards but I would like to try a tenkeyless otaku.  Outside of ordering from overseas (live in the US), what are my options?

The classifieds forum here on Geekhack?
And you could try The Keyboard Company, not sure how they handle their US shipping though so that might not be what you're looking for.

Good call.  Majestouch almost saved me but I was hoping for brown switches.  I'll keep watching.

Oh, and I looked at The Keyboard Co's site and they don't list any otaku boards.  Which almost makes me think there won't be any on amazon anytime soon.

The Keyboard Co. sells blank Filco keycaps. You could always buy a Filco tenkeyless from them on Amazon (much cheaper than ordering directly from their web site) and then order the blank keycaps from them directly. That's what I did with my Linear R. Kind of pricey, but it looks great.

So spend close to $200 or more for a Filco, or just get a Leopold for $99.  I love my Filcos but, damn.

There's one on ebay right now, using brown switches. 140 shipped buy now I believe. I'd jump on that if you have no other options. :)

Yeah I saw that one.  I really despise ebay, I refuse to make an account.
