If the PCB was already preassembled then yes the firmware has already been flashed and should be preprogrammed.

By preassembled do you mean also with switches on it? Or just that the PCB itself was assembled?

What material is the 40% plate?? I need me a 40%.

I believe it's acrylic, but I am not 100% sure on that.

KMAC Mini!

the caps lock key is wonky cause the offcenter stem doesn't quite fit right.

esoomenona · « **Reply #11454 on:** Tue, 27 August 2013, 11:48:44 »

Needs more 1.5x caps. Also, I've wondered why no one has attempted to put the numbers on the left hand side and the F keys on the top row.

huh. i guess you could do that. i think i use the numbers more than the F keys though, so for me it makes sense to have them more accessible.

esoomenona · « **Reply #11456 on:** Tue, 27 August 2013, 11:56:42 »

That is my thinking with them. To me, more accessible means having them closer together. This is the reason number pads are prevalent at all. Thus, having two rows of numbers side by side would be more efficient than having one very long row.

) but yeah, I'll definitely have to type it out on this bad boy for a bit. However, another thing is that I'm really enjoying this compact layout. This is my first keyboard smaller than standard TKL.

Got a few TKL keyboard cases.

two Grey and two black

inside view. You can see the flap that lays on top of the keyboard

a closeup of the flap

KMAC II all loaded and ready to roll

Can't forget the USB cable

The build quality on these is exceptional. The flap is sewn in and attached very well. The zipper is very heavy duty. Also, they are almost like a box, in the sense that the protective outside is pretty rigid yet the cloth inside feels like felt.
