Yes it is.  I think the marketing department of i-rocks should do something, if they really target this product at the high-end segment they should send an engineering sample to GH for preview: )  What can be better than labeling it a "Geekhack Certified Keyboard" after passing the reviews (kidding)...

The KR-6250 could be a great keyboard, but why would they go with cherry blacks? They've fixed the seriously flawed layout of the KR-6230, the LEDs, and they've encased it in metal. Should they have stuck with browns, they would have nailed the high end market. Cherry blacks...not so much.

because the Cherry MX Red Linear are in short supply.

The axes used for the Cherry MX red axis. However, the amount of red axis is basically not much. So after the production version will be out of the main shaft should be the black version.

Cherry blacks are the #1 favorite switch in the Korean communities. I don't know how it looks for the rest of Asia, but don't assume that everyone hates cherry blacks just because most on this forum do.

Personally I have grown to love cherry blacks and use them on a daily base :smile:

a man from a famous kbd factory said the 6250 would not be produced.
reason:
cherry red switch
cherry keycaps
the mold is too expensive to produce

Even Cherry Browns I worry about being obsoleted sometime.  Ever notice they aren't on the MX data sheets, on the Cherry Corp website switch reference, or in stock at distributors anywhere?


hmm guess i'll buy some cherry brown keyswitches just to stay safe :)

You know that the Wiener Schnitzel is from Vienna in Austria (allthough Milan might think otherwise)?
We are no part of Germany anymore, kudos to Russia, England and the USA for that. :D

What stupid restaurant chain is this, they don't even have Wiener Schnitzel.

They only accept money from Chinese banks, because they think Western banks are unreliable (including PayPal)

You have to work through someone who lives in China.

Ah, ty.
 Tinkered with their Web site a few days, had to immediately ask here =)

this is the best keyboard for gaming
Why they are not in Europe or America

RED Cherry MX is only:
G80 - 3494
G80 - 3000 ?

Probably have to order by E-Bay G80 - 3494
But I-roks looks much better, sadly
