Has anyone ordered a keyboard from ELite Keyboard this past weekend or sometime this week? I ordered a Leopold on Sunday, and I have not yet received an order confirmation from them yet, even though their FAQ says that a confirmation email would be sent within 24 hours. I have also emailed them about it, and they have not responded to that either :\ I hope I just didn't throw $150 away!

I just pre-ordered the corsair k60 keyboard. Currently using a Blackwidow ultimate but the glossy finish and the ackwardly placed macro keys for games that use "control" (like starcraft!) frequently make it a bit hard to use. I hate wiping the thing down with a cloth after every game.

This keyboard is brushed aluminum and just reeks of quality. I would get the k90 but it looks a little too big even coming from a Blackwidow.

I've been trying to find info on it, but with little to no success, so I thought that I'd ask here. It's not exactly a mechanical keyboard question, tho. I'm looking to buy one, but since it's pretty damn impossible to get Cherry MX red switches over here, I was thinking of getting blacks instead. So my question is, how much actuation force do membrane keyboards require? I really want to know that specific information, but no luck

"For perspective, it would be wise to remember that your average rubber dome keyboard requires between 55g and 60g of force to actuate."

Please use the OP for any questions you may have.

Thanks. I'm trying to debate with myself if I want MX Blacks or not. I'd prefer to try blacks to know if i'm going to like them or not.

New black switch mechanical keyboard:



This is probably the one with the most bells and whistles for a mechanical keyboard.

They're a small operation and usually take alittle while, especially since you bought a keyboard right when they released new products, and there's always a rush for those.

I got my email within 5 hours of placing an order, chances are they aren't on top of their shit right now. Or maybe they are being swamped. And yes I did order mine as soon as they released the fc500rs

I'd call and ask if they have a support line. 3 days is stretching it.

I have 2 Filco's and I can't reccomend them enough for people who like good keyboards.

agreed, i opened this thread up just to say this. ive been using a majestouch tenkeyless (first mechanical) for a few months now, and i just tried typing something on a regular keyboard on my friend's computer earlier - he uses the same keyboard i was using for years before that and in my blissful ignorance never had any problems with. Oh man night and day, im spoiled forever now. Couldnt believe how much worse a regular keyboard feels.

Ah! I thought they were an already established company. Thanks for letting me know!

Well they've been around for awhile but mechanical keyboards aren't exactly the largest market, despite their seeming popularity on TL

Hey everyone, just got my CM Storm w/CherryMX Red Switches and they are FREAKING GREAT!!! Such an awesome board for SC2 I just can't put into words. Supposedly, Browns are way better for SC2, as many say, but I don't know how they could be cause Reds feel perfect. If anyone with exp. with both wanna chime in, as for now Reds are fucken bangin.

For those curious about sound and bothering others, this video was posted recently on WASD Keyboards' YouTube channel:

Reds should sound basically like blacks.
