After using this keyboard over the weekend i've decided to share more thoughts about it.
Typing on this keyboard is really nice compared to typing on the Blacks since it's a lot lighter so chatting with people and typing is very effortless. The first few days I kept bottoming out a lot since I was still getting used to the lighter feel, but now that i've had more time, I bottom out less. However, i'm a terrible typist and still have trouble touch typing. I notice that if I try to focus on touch typing is misspell a lot more and have more errors. But when I type regularly I have less errors. It's very weird, but it's something I need to work on personally.
As for gaming, i've only been really playing two games recently, Call of Duty: Black Ops and League of Legends.
For shooters, i'm almost always bottomed out on the WASD cluster since i'm constantly moving, and moving my fingers to other keys for knifing, crouching, proning or calling in killstreaks is hardly different from other keyboards, it just takes less force to actuate the action.
For League of Legends, I use the WASD cluster to scroll around the map and I notice that I end up bottoming out when I do this, as well as when I press the buttons to attack and use abilities. Again, I think I just need to get used to putting less pressure on the keys.
They keyboard itself hasn't given me any problems whatsoever, I still don't like how "plastic-y" the keyboard feels and how "scratchy and dry" the keys feel. If I still don't like how they feel, I might just get some Filco keys and swap them out for these, even though I do like the Chinese lettering.
What I would love to have (or possibly make), is a white Filco tenkeyless frame with Cherry MX Reds (maybe with Otaku keycaps). If Filco made one of these, I would probably order two in an instant, but who knows if and when this will happen.
Wouldn't it also be possible to get a white tenkeyless Filco and swap out the switches with the Reds from a Cherry board? It seems like it would be quite some work with removing the switches from both keyboards and then re-soldering the switches back on the other boards.
