Was wondering if anyone out there in the Toronto, Ontario area would care to meet up at a coffee shop or something so I could try their Topre keyboard. I would pay for lunch. I was thinking of getting one but I really want to try it first before forking out $300.

hrrmmm...... This seems like a very good "indirect, dating opener pitch"...  though obviously you'd have to switch keyboards to something else a female would own and you could try out... LOL

Hope you find someone, GL.

I would say the chance of a female keyboard enthusiast is much lower

Unless you can't wait that long or you just want a Topre date with sexy geeky ladyies then never mind lol.

Signed up. But I actually can't wait! And maybe if I do meet up with someone I will have a Topre to bring to the meetup.

LOL I will remember this tactic for later times. One girlfriend is enough right now.

isn't there also a keychain..

screw the keychain, I want to do a little SCII trying with it. Also a lot of people didn't like topre when they tried the 4 keys try before you buy from mr.interface. I don't know how close they felt to topres installed into a real board.

Better yet, find volunteers to test the cloud of boob experiment.  It's for science, I swear.... lol
