I have 2 leopolds and neither of them ping, thus my indifference to all things ping related on here, they're just lulz.
EK's prices for Leopolds seem fine, though if he raises them anymore and chalks it up to currency changes I'm going to revise that assessment.
Now Realforce and HHKBs though... lol.
I respect the guy for trying to cater to a niche market, but lol we're at $490 keyboards now and who knows where it's going to end.
