I am looking for a tenkeyless ISO keyboard with mx blue or black switches.
The only one I found so far is the Filco Majestouch 2. Is it really the only one that meets my requirements? Are there any other tenkeyless (or at least really compact) ISO keyboards out there?
I will use blank caps so the lettering doesn't really matter.

You can also find cmstorm quick fire rapid in spanish iso. They may be unbranded ones but not sure

I picked up a CM Rapid in the UK, the website listed it with photographs of the US layout with CM branding - but I actually received a UK layout with no branding. Happy with it!

Thanks for the answers. The CM Storm Quickfire Rapid looks nice.

Are there much more tenkeyless ANSI keyboards? I've been thinking about switching from ISO to ANSI, but I'm not sure whether it's worth it or not :P

Its worth swapping if you can, opens up more options for you. You'll be able to get dyesub pbt caps for a start.

However as your from Germany your region has the most luck with genuine cherry doubleshot caps.... so maybe buy two boards and keep your options open.

I can't really switch myself as I spend most of my time remoted into systems set with a uk locale.

Well.. I guess I could switch.
I'm already using an ANSI keyboard (with the german qwertz layout) at home so I just would have to change the layout to US and get a new keyboard for work.

I switched from my weird 7.5 finger system to touch typing in 3 days (with 35wpm right now, 110 before) so the ISO -> ANSI conversion should be doable :)
