You won't be able to use it. If you want to spend hours desoldering the switches then it might be worth it, but still £80 is a bit much.

If it is re-listed at a lower price, it may be worth it for the switches and keys alone - that is a lot of "different" double-shots in some "interesting" colours ......

wow. I really wish I had a keyboard like that. Windowed keys with LEDs!
Most of the modding can be done on your own once you break through the psychological barriers.

I enjoy keyboards with lots of function keys, so I've always wanted to get a WEY 'board. I'd wire everything up to a teensy++ though so I can use it.
