Steelseries looking into Tenkey-less options?
« on: Sun, 18 September 2011, 17:20:39 »
As per Steelseries latest poll on their facebook page http://www.facebook.com/SteelSeries
it looks like they might be looking into some options with tenkeyless designs.

What do you guys think?
A tenkeyless gamer board?
Do you think theyll go mechanical?

Whatever the option is, go vote for a tenkeyless keyboard!

Ah, sorry.
Its a poll:

" Do you use any of the keys in the numeric keypad area on your keyboard?"

Options:
Yes, often
Yes, rarely
No
No, use a keyboard without it

I have to tell all my stupid friends to vote no, they all voted yes :( I really want steelseries to make a tenkeyless mech so I can actually afford it. If they do miraculously make a tenkeyless mech, then I hope it doesn't have the huge enter key/small backspace, and it costs around $70-80, $10 less than the full model.

I voted No, use a keyboard without it because I like Steelseries Keyboards but don't like fullsize anymore.

Yeah I noticed Yes is winning by quite a margin. I personally used to bind all of my weapon buys to the numpad in cs but its just a convenience thing. I think their target market can do without a numpad. My 6gv2 is really durable and a great board but the size, keycaps, and the abnormal enter & backspace keys really kill it for me.

Tenkeyless actually tends to cost more than full size, and I still buy it.

Filco full size probably outsells Filco tenkeyless by at least two to one.

And TKLs probably less.


He's whoring himself out now?

Why not have the best of both worlds? I'm sort of hoping for a layout like this:


Home: Topre Realforce 87W45  /  Mionix Naos 3200
Work: Topre Realforce 87B  /  Microsoft Intellimouse Explorer 3.0
