I think they are also extremely hard to find in North America, which is why people don't have those that often here. | ||

Do I just go onto the USPS site and enter into the code I was given? Currently it just says "there is no record of this item". I know the keyboard I ordered was out of stock so it would be backordered but is there another way to see if/when it will be coming? Thanks The code will work eventually USPS is a little slow and if you read the USPS page you got it explains why it doesnt show up right away even though you have the code. Why Are You Receiving This Message? 1. Event information may not be available if your item was mailed recently. Please try again later. 2. The number was entered incorrectly. Be sure to enter all of the letters and numbers as they appear on your mailing label or receipt. EDIT: My tracking number didnt work yesterday but it works today. | ||

Obvious problem is shipping is $$$$$$. If you go to China or Taiwan though I hear these have insanely good prices. Should be same quality as Filco but cheaper. Although it should come out similar with shipping + cost if you get it there. If I were getting a keyboard with Cherry switches I like that one the best, but I think I'll get a Unicomp. | ||

Just to clarify for everyone who doesn't know, browns have the same tactile bump that blues do but without the extra, high-pitched "click" you probably associate with a typewriter. They are also ~5g lighter to press down. | ||
