Rosewill's newest (available) mechanical keyboard
« on: Tue, 07 August 2012, 09:56:04 »
I was rather surprised to find this on NewEgg:




Mentioned on VR-Zone Forums, with a nice new ad pic.  Only to be available in MX Blue and MX Brown.

Well I didn't say it was the newest design they had released  ;)

This one you can buy!  At least in blues... wonder how long til the browns show up.

Eek, ~$108 shipped for a full sized keyboard... not too interesting imo. Probably should have went with white keycaps as well.

At $65 they are well worth it but not at $108. I just noticed last night that the case is bent in near my spacebar.


I still really like the board, but it's because it was cheap. If it was a Filco/expensive, I would have been pissed.

jeeez $108, price set higher than a leopold?  and only $20 cheaper than a filco?  Either swnig for the fences or make a budget product, price is far too steep for a rosewill

Does Rosewill even make a TKL? I haven't ever seen one. No thanks to battleships.

CM Storm may have stolen any possibility of that.

might not be worth it. Definitely looks nice though. it looks like it might suffer from teh same fate as the rk9000 since it'll have the same mini USB connection on teh keyboard. weird

RK9000 in white. Amazing. It does look nicer than the black one, but they totally fail for me if not offering in linear switches.
