Seems they have added White body models and also yellow top TKL's.

Yummy wood palm rests!

I didn't know Filco made wooden palm rests.  Pretty cool...can't wait to see a picture.

Looks like they already have Minila size rests as well.

Also the minila is in stock with a $30 off promo code.

I would get this but that layout is just so awful

For this board along with the Pure Pro and Leopold 6600 I would like to see a 10-15 minute video of its creators explaining what drugs they were taking while in development.

Good price on the Minila for any of the switches at $110 US shipped.  Less than JPY's MSRP of 11800.  Good deal if you're in the market for one.

I think I could get used to the Minila layout simply because you can change the FN keys to space bar.

I reason I won't buy one is once I start wearing out the FN or space bar. Replacement simply will not be possioble unless directly from filco.

I always wear in space bars pretty damn good...

You must either have some sweaty hands and/or rest your thumba on the space bar.

My hands are always cold! lol

I do rest on the space bar though. This pic is also from a crappy rubber dome board I used before I went mechanical so I'm guessing the coating was crap.

Oh it's probably redirecting you to the US site. The link is from the Canadian site.

Looks like the US site only has Minila's. Lame.

There might be an existing contract that says only KeyboardCo can sell Filco Majestouch in the US.
