Live source for Blue Cherry boards?

didjamatic, glad to hear you were able to snag one, since you were the OP after all. I thank YOU for inspiring me to check Gemini yet again, for the umpteenth time. I had pretty much given up all hope. The only problem now is that I want a second one, and this time they might really be gone for good.

Search for a Das Keyboard 2.  They are basically the same thing.  The Das 2 is just a Cherry G80-3000 with blue switches and blank caps.

I spoke too soon.... I just called "Barcode Spot" and as of 8:30am today, they had 9 of these in stock. The bad news is that the price ($67.87) does not include shipping. However, it's an option for those who weren't able to take advantage of the Gemini stock!

Don't believe the availability on their site unless someone puts their hands on them or you order and get a shipped notice.  I bought 2 of them online from different sites (each said 3 in stock) and they ended up being the same people with multiple websites and they didn't have any.  It's hard to tell what companies are separate or just a front for another company.
