As far as keyboard looks go, this seems to be the premier site right now, unless there is a site that allows you to dye the base of the keyboard as well.

To be objective though, they keyboards don't even seem to have media player function-keys on F1-F6 like just about all mechanical keyboards (even the 6gv2) have. Hopefully it's just me not being able to find any declaration that they have the function, cause if you're behind the 6gv2 at this point in time,..

I heard TB mention something about a "version 2" coming. Hopefully that's when they include these function keys (if they're currently missing), along with NKRO on usb.

Are there keyboards for larger hands and larger people?
I've been looking for one that is bigger in the sense of wider in total, not just keys spaced more widely apart, but a keyboard entirely that is wider - - as if for a bigger shoulder span. My hands have to join together on the keyboard to narrowly.

I've had a friend who's been eyeing a WASD keyboard for well over a year now. I really wonder if he'll ever take the plunge and go for it. I'm happy with my Thermaltake Meka G1, but I'd heavily consider getting a WASD cherry mx red with O-rings as my next mech kb.

Apparently they have indeed included media keys, but not on F-keys:

Multimedia keys were frequently requested, but we didn't like the way this was implemented on other keyboards. The hotkeys were generally set up in a way that either required two hands or required you bend and twist your hand around in unnatural ways. We positioned our hotkeys in the Ins, Del, Home, End, PgUp, PgDn cluster. It's designed for you to press the Fn/Menu Key with your right thumb so you use your middle and ring fingers to comfortably access the multimedia hotkeys.

This sponsorship will be so good for both parties. WASDkeyboard will probably see a spike in their sales as a result of this.

Is this a Razer reference? I just had my 170 dollar Razer Megalodon's mic cable short out and my Razer Abyssus's left click die on me haha. Interestingly, though, my Razer Lycosa keyboard is still working fine. I'll be keeping an eye on it though. Damn Razer products man...

same thing happend to me with steelseries, i think it only depends on costumers luck :D

Had 3 Razer mouses and the left click has worn down on all of them, really poor quality plastic that pushes on the button inside the mouse.

I've heard of them before, but never really bothered to check them out – until now. Damn, I got so tempted to buy one, but I neither have a reason to (I've got a keyboard I'm satisfied with) nor the money to (I live in Sweden, shipping and taxes would be a pain...).

I think the WASD Keyboard v2 that TB was talking about in the video is a tenkeyless version, meaning it does not have a numpad.

Does this sponsor include acer as well since the two teams are partnered?

Damn those keyboards look pretty sweet. I already have a keyboard i really like, but if i was in the market for one. I would deff check those guys out. And i really like TB and Axiom, so its nice to see them get additional sponsors.
