Where can i Buy the keyboard, elitekeyboards all sold out. of the brown switch 104 keys
The keyboard company is a UK(i believe) site that has filco if you are willing to pay for the more expensive shipping, otherwise you will have to wait. I emailed elite keyboards about their next stock a couple days ago buy no reply.

I was lucky enough to get one in their shipment this month. In the conversation I had with a guy from elitekeyboards it sounded like they get 1 shipment a month.

Damn that really sucks, i want the brown over blues because i room with four other people, the quieter the better. Hopefully i will catch next months shipment before they sell out for the holidays.

I added the keyboard into cart before the price went up, but hadn't paid. Like $109, now it is $118. So I earn extra $9 lol

Filco is a brand, Steelseries 6gv2 is a specific keyboard... Try to specify a keyboard for comparison.

Well, the 6gv2 uses brown cherry switches so the pressure required to press them down is a bit more. Some players find blacks tire their hands out.

I am currently using the Majestouch with the brown switches and it seems VERY solid. It could survive a nuke it feels so solid.

Majestouch brown switch is different in that it has brown switches and the 6gv2 uses blacks. So really, I think you are asking about the differences between brown and black switches.

Filco black switches are pretty much the same as 6gv2 with the only difference being appearance and layout.

And the price. I've seen the Steelseries 6GV2 down to $75 at NCIX and MemoryExpress before, while the Filco can go up to $140 including shipping and taxes.

Getting this keyboard has been probably one of the best investments I've made regarding computer peripherals. Headphones break, mice break, and mouse pads wear out but this thing is a beast. I could use this keyboard to hammer in a nail (but i won't ) and nothing would happen to it.

Actually keycaps are very fragile on any cherry switch based keyboard. I broke so many keycaps, and it was costing me so much to get replacements, that I ended up buying a keyboard with topre capacitative switches instead. Which IMO are much more solid that cherry switches.

People who break keyboards will always find ways to break them, lasting 10 times longer means crap when you treat them like crap. I have old membrane keyboards that work just fine that i've used for years for various reasons, because i protect and clean, ie maintain them.

There are some you can only get in Asia, like a Ducky 1087, but not many in the North America. There was a Model M spacesaver, which you might find used on ebay or something.

This is probably the best keyboard I've typed on so far (FKB104M/EB). And it's *HEAVY* compared the membrane keyboards I usually type on. It feels a lot more solid than too - like a previous poster said, its like you could hammer a nail with it.

Also, if you're not used to mechanical keyboards, it feels weird to type on first, but you get used to it.

The first few days I used to constantly bottom out my keys. Now, not so much.

And I dont understand how someone can break the keycaps on this thing. I used a $15 media Logitech keyboard for about 7 years and I *NEVER* broke a single keycap on that thing.

Only time I broke a keycap was one I accidentally dropped a heavy book on my open laptop, breaking off a key. Then again those are scissor keys... which are pretty fragile.
Stick a fork in those buns.

Not sure if this has been discussed yet but I don't think FruitDealer is using a filco anymore? Or that's what it looked like from GSL vids.
