Ducky shine 2 Question

[sokjin]

Hi all,

I was just browsing through leopolds site and realised that they have the Ducky DK-9008 G2 SHINE. Is this the same keyboard as the Ducky DK9008 Shine II Mech Keyboard ??

I'm a bit confused what the difference between the first edition and second edition is apart from the (saving LED settings).. from what i've been reading Ducky Shine II shouldn't be released until September 2012 is that correct? Did leopold get their hands on it earlier? or it just the old edition?

It's a different keyboard, the shine's model number is DK9008S whereas that is DK9008 G2 and only has backlit keys for WASD and caps/num/scroll lock keys.

For reference:

Yes there is a new version of the Shine comming, as in the MKII, from what i can tell the difference is all in what the led's can do, as in reactive lighting and also record-able lighting.
