it's very early to tell but I'm too excited to keep it for myself :) there's finally a small chance we could have PBT sublimated... tall spherical SA keycaps (not properly from SP).

I'll keep you posted, just wanted to drop this bomb on you before going to bed :)

Not from SP, eh? But Topre!??!? If there's anything better than SA in current production, it's right there on that creamy HiPro.

I'll tell you another secret. Many of the Topre special keycap sets are ugly. In color and/or in shape.

of course Cherry stem. the hi-pro is to wet your appetite :) I hope to be in charge to design the set... so you know what to expect :D

Cherry is good, but when will you get fashionable and design a Model F or beamspring set?

you guys are impossible to please :D

MX adapters for beamspring are just waiting to happen! I'm pretty sure it's doable.

So, I'm guessing this is neither SP nor GMK, but someone from Asia. If not Topre (seriously, BE TOPRE) then who?? Vortex!? Noppoo!?!?

Colemak Ergodox Ninja it is then.

Btw, I thought the last taboo was members secretly typing on glass, like Muirium and clicky! Or was it the members who don't reach their full potential as keyboard enthousiasts because of peer pressure?

the last taboo is capacitive buckling spring with cherry stem, adjustable activation point, clicky OR tactile OR linear with PBT double shot caps.

can't say yet who is producing them, but it's gonna be legend....

Tall sublimated spherical PBT SA caps? You could also be responsible for the design? Sounds great! Curious what the solution of the riddle will be...

Sounds good, matt3o.
Can't wait to see if this comes to fruition and who the maker is :)

What about PBT dye-subs in SS profile... with Alps mount! That’s what I want. :)
