The HHKB Pro 2 is the best keyboard purchase I've made. The layout is perfect for me, so there is no need for reprogramming it. Although I like the HHKB Pro 2 as it is, there were some things I decided to change, so I added Topre silencing rings and 55g domes to a black HHKB and dressed it up a bit with blue alphanumeric keycaps plus red Esc and Fn keys. 60% is my favorite form factor, and I've tried others in this category (including Poker II, Tex Beetle, V60 Matias Quiet, and V60 Matias Click). The V60 Matias Click comes close to being my top pick, but the HHKB Pro 2 still wins.
