[GB] Double shot replacements ROUND FOUR! - SHIPPING!

[7bit]

Great news ! Please let us know when they will become available, I'm definitely interested.

Just order!

I will update the super-long pricelist as soon as possible.

[kps]

Something like this:
DCS/R4U150/WA/GX/CC/CONTROL
DCS/R4U125/RCQ/GQM/CL/Control
SA/R3U100/NN/BFP/CC/CTRL
DCS/R3U175F/RA/NN/CL/Control

I think that would be awesome... but don't let my approval stop you from doing it.

Ideally I'm hoping to get three copies of keys for a split project (similar but not exactly the same as Kinesis or ErgoDox) something like this —



which maybe means ALNUM + MOD100 + cursor arrows + some blanks (if I knew what *ALNUM were), or maybe not.

... plus a ‘battleship’ based on TERMINAL or maybe NUMERIC for a hex num pad... plus a Phantom or two....

[zulios]

Just order!

I will update the super-long pricelist as soon as possible.

Done, I'll process it again later to check on these kits availability, as expected that didn't go through yet.

Sorry, I really hate to complain
But after looking at the graphics for the SE kit I must say that I'm not that sure about additional symbols on the e and m key (€ and μ). They sort of break the uniformity and makes it kind of cluttered.

The SE/FI Filcos only have the €.
OS X doesn't place € and μ on those keys anyway.
Looking at keyboards on a Swedish computer store. Some have both, some only € and some none. A few have € on 4, the same as OS X and no μ. And I even found some that places @ on q, not sure how drunk the person placing them there must have been though.

So my question then becomes, are they really necessary? Has someone specifically requested these? Personally I would like them gone, but I'm not the only one buying the Swedish layout.

Also now that you have added the awesome QUOTEAST150 that key could be removed from the SE kit. But I'm sure you already thought about that.

german keyboards tend to have € on E, @ on Q and µ on m. not sure if they are always labeled like that but thats the german keyboard layout afaik

Ahh I see. Thanks for explaining that.
Then those keyboard must have been German. They probably wasn't that drunk when designing it then. Unless it was right after Oktoberfest.

[byFd]

watch out for some öäüß! or are they on swedish boards too?

[dorkvader]

Is there a country code for "dvorakistan" language? DV maybe? If so, I really want to change my SPH order to that.

[Wraul]

watch out for some öäüß! or are they on swedish boards too?

Nah Swedish boards has öäå instead.

[Zehkul]

Yes it is. That's the normal German layout, at least, I don't know about the Swedish one. And who cares about Apple anyway.

I agree with removing € and µ from the SE keys

[Rankrotten]

Is NOIR style still in?

[s7e]

So since all these changes, does that mean i can now get my dark kit (black on dark gray?)

[s7e]

NOIR/TKL
NOIR/SPACE

RETRO/TKLRGBY
RETRO/SPACE
RETRO/SPACE/GREY

RETRO/TKL/GREY
RETRO/SPACE/GREY

RETRO/FUNCTION12

+ some picture keys that i missed out on in round 3. Hmm, what am i leaving out?

I was thinking of getting the RETRO/RGBY/WHITE or NOIR/RGBY/WHITE, but not sure which. I don't know which set would match my overall sets of doubleshots (also have round3 set). These are colored keys with white text? (such as http://geekhack.org/attachment.php?attachmentid=26883 http://geekhack.org/showthread.php?20058-FINAL-Doubleshot-RGB-Set-from-SP-%28Orders-Payments-Deadline%29 - these are from a group buy here on gh, looks like they used RA/VCM/BFN) Is white the only font color on these? Is there any way to get this kit with only the keys for tenkeyless us-filco?

[Ixana]

2 different space bars are enough for this group buy.

Also, not everybody needs such weird keys like 2.25 or 2.75 units Shift and Return keys.

Does this means you are not going to include in this buy a spacebar for the Leopold FC500 even if SP can make it?

Thanks

[Adelhyde]

A quick question - it looks like the STANDARD and TENKLESS kits include a Row 3 Ctrl Key and a Row 5 Caps Lock key, is this correct? I prefer to have the Ctrl key next to the A and the Caps Lock key to the left of the space bar.

[Curetia]

ORANJE/STDSYMDE    137   130   Standard Symbols DE kit (101-104 keys)

I found this in the pricelist to this groupbuy.
1. This is standard-kit with DE-Kit and symbols-kit instead of the keys from the standard kit right?
2. DE-Layout is 105keys but there is 101-104 have I to order the short shift, J-Ret and the 105th key extra?

Just make a more visible list which contains all the keys which should be in the KPS kit. If you take 3 of this kit I add it.

Some demanded them. They will only be presend on RETRO, NOIR and ORANJE styles.

Because the other variants without € and µ exist, I can add a WRAUL kit which contains E and M.

In the end we will have more kits than keys, but that does not matter ...

My personal opinion is that anybody should be able to remember where the Euro sign is.

Also, why can't people remember where the µ is?

What about ν and β left of µ?

[zulios]

7bit, no kit including FR language is appearing in the price list and they do not seem to go trough the order system as well :-(
Tried RETRO/STDALNUMFR/ORANGE and RETRO/FUNCTION12/ORANGE

Also :
RETRO/STDALNUMFR/ORANGE
^
Gives A-Z keys, punctuation keys and numpad number keys, correct ?

RETRO/FUNCTION12/ORANGE
^
So I need to add these to get 8 function keys with corresponding color (F1-F4 and F9-F12), correct ?

The Swedes are always drunk, so how can they tell SE and DE layout apart?

Just use DVORAK.

I would love a WRAUL kit. Makes me feel special I guess Slavfot would be interested in this too.

I can't begin to imagine how frustrating it must be trying to put this together and catering for every ones needs/demands.

My personal opinion is that anybody should be able to remember where the Euro sign is.

Also, why can't people remember where the µ is?

What about ν and β left of µ?

I fully agree with you. The Euro sing can't be that hard to remember if you have a use for it.
I don't believe I have typed a µ in my entire life. Until yesterday that is.
Swedish doesn't use ν or β so those wouldn't make any sense. But you are probably speaking about the German layout.

[Wraul]

The Swedes are always drunk, so how can they tell SE and DE layout apart?

You are absolutely right. That's probably why I didn't notice that the keyboard with @ on q was German.

no purple need ansi anyways

[Mysteric]

So what would I need to type to get a full 104 set of white blank PBT keycaps with UK ISO modifiers (Small left shift, big Enter key etc.) and roughly how much would I be looking at?

BLANKPBT/BLANKSTD/WHITE
BLANKPBT/BLANKJRET/WHITE
BLANKPBT/BLANKSHIFT125/WHITE
BLANKPBT/BLANKJRET/WHITE

A) or instead of WHITE you type PEARLWHITE
B) you will miss a spacebar then. there are no PBT space

and roughly how much would I be looking at?

pricelist: http://deskthority.net/wiki/Round4_Pricelist
is not updated for PBT as far as I know. And also the "/50" means price only if 50 pieces are bought.

edit: corrected: BLANKSHIFT125 for BLANK125

[kps]

Quick question — is it decided whether SPH/FUNCTION and the left function keys in SPH/TERMINAL will be all row 3?

Yes. Function keys will all be from row 3.

Awesome! If I have not made any mistakes all these keys already exist in other kits — I am not trying to add any custom keys. Let me know if you want me to reformat the list into something easier for your system to process.

29 december, described as the deadliest of the deadlines in the wiki. Frightening !

[7bit]

Is there a new deadline?

Yes:
Absolute definite deadliest deadline: 2011-12-29

Don't know what will happen after that but I guess I start collecting money from those few who still want those overpriced key caps.

[dorkvader]

You forgot the over priced under quality key caps part.

By definition, anything made in America isn't "overpriced". They're creating jobs, people!

[kps]

You forgot the over priced under quality key caps part.

I'm told the sphericals are pretty good, since the molds predate the Triumph of Crapitalism. (There might be photos in the wiki, but it's impossible to find anything in there.)

You have listed them the wrong way round:

1 ! --> $PUNCTKEY(!,1)

But is no problem.

Here is the result:

You forgot the over priced under quality key caps part.

Welcome to Geek Hack!

Please send the following to 7bit_R4:

Thanks for your order!

Thanks! Now to spend my remaining budget on Phantom & ‘battleship’ kits!

[7bit]

I'm told the sphericals are pretty good, since the molds predate the Triumph of Crapitalism. (There might be photos in the wiki, but it's impossible to find anything in there.)

They predate the never ending September and they even predate the time when computers became a consumer product!

Death to the PC!

Long live the real machines!

Good to hear.  Do we need to modify existing pre-orders or just leave them as is.

Just add more stuff!!!

7bit, no kit including FR language is appearing in the price list and they do not seem to go trough the order system as well :-(
Tried RETRO/STDALNUMFR/ORANGE and RETRO/FUNCTION12/ORANGE

Also :
RETRO/STDALNUMFR/ORANGE
^
Gives A-Z keys, punctuation keys and numpad number keys, correct ?

RETRO/FUNCTION12/ORANGE
^
So I need to add these to get 8 function keys with corresponding color (F1-F4 and F9-F12), correct ?

7bit, I know there's so many sets and that's a pain but any word on this ? I'd like to order but can't currently.

Is there a row 4 z in the NEO kit, so that you can order STDSYMDE + NEO to have both?

Oh and I haven't seen order statistics in a long time I'd be interested in which novelty keys (like tuxmod) finally survived.

nvm look below

Spacebar needs to be ABS, so you'll have to order one I guess. The color should match with black. ;P

7bit said to me at least that there already is a ISO shift in the blankstd kit, so you just need a JRET + Space.
