I'd actually use my HHKB if I had one.


thought you had one already?

This puts the price of my uber-awesome 104UB-DK into perspective. I think I shall keep it, since it is the best non-custom 104 keyboard in existence imo... it was just so damn expensive.

If it was 55g I'd have bought it already :D

It is so smooth though, but I like to bottom out... so what ever lets me do it easier I tend to prefer.  I can see why this went up to the price it did, since you never know when another one will pop up.  In my opinion, having one now is better than waiting for one to pop up and stalking the classifieds, which can get tiresome over time.  If you have to pay a $100-$150 more, so be it. Of course, to some, that amount is a drop in the bucket.

Dang that was a great find. I do miss my 23u, but it's in good hands now :)

I have to say, I'm quite surprised it went for that high. But I can understand when it's an item that's out of production and has no suitable replacement.

As for who won the auction, I'm not at liberty to say (privacy and all), the winner already paid and it'll be shipping out. Thanks everyone for your interest, and thanks for the exposure by creating this thread, sublime!
