If there is enough interest I can add a 104 Realforce into the mix, with a silenced purple slider numpad and stock TKL portion. I could probably even add some 55g to it as well.

I'm definitely in to be part of the tour.  Are we still able to be part of the tour?  I scanned the thread but probably not thoroughly enough.

Two months and 200 post requirement. The initial list has already been decided as well, though there seems to be enough interest to generate a second round.

Just revisiting this thread but that would definitely be interesting. You can't judge topre just off one board, I think it'd be nice to try out a few.

I have a multi-weight Topre tester board that has been on tour. Last time I tried to get a sign-up thread going though, it fizzled. Would be happy to try again.

This is an option as well. ^^

I have a plan on getting a hipro board and transfer the housing and stem to my realforce! HHKB would be awesome I think?

Awww. Okay, I promise I won't use the HHKB when Waateva sends it over. I'll only work on glitterfying it.

If the HHKB can beat my Realforce 55g, I may not need to buy any other keyboard, no matter how fancy it may seem.

That's fine, was it 55g at least? 55g RF is the only exception.

It was 55g before I modded it to 45g.

That's the number it shows right on the receipt and on the insurance slip.  I did just drop it off about 30 minutes ago so it might not be in the system.

..because I am now in the honeymoon period with my 87UB 55g. The honeymoon period never ends with Topre!

Buy all colors, it never hurts to have spares around, plus you can color swap caps and have black on white and white on black.

Is the Type-S really silent? Judging from the videos, the thock is (luckily) still there, which makes for most of the sound IMHO.

But I own a white fc660c so getting a type-s @ 300$ is a little tough since I own a white/grey scheme topre board already (buying it anyway) and getting a black one in a couple month(when my wife calms down about a 300$ keyboad) is going to happen regardless... But mark my words, I will own both.

Why is the Type-S so much more? Isn't it just dampened/silenced somehow?

Is the Type-S really silent? Judging from the videos, the thock is (luckily) still there, which makes for most of the sound IMHO.

not that much more silent. definitely not worth the premium price IMO. best bet is to find a deal from amazon jp or somebody selling it in classifieds. ive never had a problem with the pro2 so maybe i can't hear that much difference?
No, he’s not around. How that sound to ya? Jot it down.

I know I **** around a lot, but I'm not trying to make anybody waste their money. I truly believe hhkb is the best typing experience you can have. I just want to share it with others.

You prefer un-silenced on the HHKB as well right?

Is it necessary? I don't think so. But if you can afford it or find a good deal, eh, why not? I enjoy it. But I can easily go back to unsilenced

I thought the Pro 2 was really quiet, but I'm used to louder switches so that might be why.
