A box showed up today (or maybe yesterday? No one noticed until today anyways). I'll get some better pictures when my camera battery recharges - always fun to be fighting a dead battery.
Wow, more than I expected. It's actually quite nice to type on, especially coming from a while of using my Thinkpad's keyboard. Being in a smaller room than before the quietness of it is nice compared to the M I would normally use since the ping echos.
I think I know who the seller is, but I won't spoil it. Really nice present. Should serve as a nice thank-you to Compgeke for organising the Secret Santa.
Sorry to have to sit on the sidelines again. (I splurged on an HHKB and Cindy's got a NIB SSK for me, so I'm all spent.) But even from over here, I can tell who sent those two so far!
@Compgeke: be glad you're not in Britain. That Type Heaven may be a gift, but if it came from Japan, customs would still demand payment for it. We get a £36 ($56) limit here before they pounce on prezzies! And that includes the cost of shipping.
Not that I've just read up on all this because of something I have in the works. No sir!
My secret santa gift came yesterday and I accidentally opened it, because I thought it was another package I am waiting for. This package came from Germany, I think.
Here is a photo of it:

From the looks they are really nice, although the grey is a bit too dark for my liking. They are nice doubleshots with no shine whatsoever. I can't tell anything about the feel of this keyboard, as I haven't used it yet. The layout seems to be quite nice, though, apart from the big ass-enter. I'll try to get some use of it the next few days.
Be glad I wasn't in this. You'd have to wait forever. (7bit's HyperMicro is still a no show here, and may be until next week thanks to our slow post.) And I'd be too cheap to send a keyboard! Well, before seeing that others are now.
