Finally appeared on Leopold site. Sadly, no blank white PBT options like the preview :[

Interesting that the official announcement pics show the board with blank white keycaps. Think they'll be shipping it that way? I like the white but I'm a terrible typist; I need the legends.

If you check out the Leopold products (specifically fc700r) , they usually have 3 versions of each color.

Blank
English Legends
English + Korean Legends

Its also worth noting that they have a nice soft grey color for the legends on white keycaps.

:] And yes they are all PBT.



Decent amount of thickness in them too. The only down side was that leopolds used their own unique space bars. So nothing else was compatible. But I heard they're updating it so it's universal. Not sure if they implemented it on these new models though.

I wonder how it will feel. I assume it will be more like a realforce 45g than the hhkb because of the plate, so I hope they release a 55g option. Been wanting to buy a 55g realforce but I'd love to get this instead.

I am sure their engineering team will get right on that! :P

I would also like to add a split spacebar, maybe a second and third Fn layer.
While they are at it, please ask them to add the ISO enter key, and maybe engineer a new LED backlit scheme. :p

Wow... finally a tenkey without that ridiculous "00" BS. Wish they made a Topre version of this, too :-\

Hey....the double and triple zero is useful if you are working with big numbers.  I can pump out accounting spread sheets crazy quick with my RF 23u and the triple zero.

I would want the numpad if not for the stuff at the top. If they just cut it off at numlock it would be perfect. But the way it is it would require more keys than come with a standard tenkey set.
