Right angle USB Mini B adapter.

These are about $2.40 individually or lots of 10 for $10.00 and lots of 25 for $25.00.  I ordered some and put one on my HHKB so the cord follows flat against the back of the keyboard and sticks out toward the left.

I think the color variety on the top row of your keyboard is what's really lacking, Maarty McFlyy.

I wish I had a Scandinavian double-vowel name like that.  Totes jealous.

Nice find. I have a right angle cable for my HHKBs so I can put my HHKB right on top of my internal keyboard on my Macbook without the cable getting bent.

I wish the black plastic housing weren't so bulky.  I mean, they have SATA cables that terminate in right-angle connectors; why can't the people who manufacture the braided USB mini-Bs for so many of these mech keyboards have the connector itself angled?  Or on a swivel joint?

These are great!  A must have for hhkb users w/ notebooks.  

Not too bulky imo either...I think the photo can be a bit misleading without anything else to reference the scale.

I have one of these that I use with my rosewill - I've been meaning to stick an adhesive zip-tie anchor next to it to provide some mechanical strain relief as well. I figure the belt and suspenders approach all but eliminates usb port failure on the keyboard ;)

I have this one and had used it until I made outlet on side of my HHKB(case mod).
It doesn't fit HHKB outlet exactly without carving its plastic enclosure.

This is what I got for my poker when using with my notebook....3ft long cable with 90-deg end and easier to keep up with than an adapter.
