Only means you have to check this thread more frequently, it was posted while the auction had several days left. :(
We need a club members feature: subscribe to forum updates. Where you can define your own queries. Notifications are great things.

(I made my own version of this with Freegle — Edinburgh's alt Freecycle because we're all about alt, damnit — where I subscribed to email notifications of *all* new stuff, and used Gmail's server side rules to filter out everything besides a few keywords I was into. Got a few nice vintage Macs that way. Could surely see something like it being very useful here, if we can integrate it somehow.)

I get notifications on thread updates via Tapatalk. One of the better features it has to offer. Something like that locally here would be great.

Currently, (without Tapatalk which I don't use) you can subscribe to a thread and get email notifications of all new posts. But you can't filter them, and they don't include the content, just a link. Something a bit smarter than that — and more like how we do PM emails — would be just the ticket.

All for it! I'm not a big Tapatalk fan. It's practical and I've gotten used to it. There's a disturbing lack of alternatives on Android.

@mu you certainly can filter at least parts of the email notifications, I did so for certain threads using gmail and then inbox.

And I agree, Tapatalk is kind of the only real option for forums on android. Tho I have been getting a weird issue only with DT, where in my notifications everyone uses the first persons avatar, so if I get a pm from Mu all the other have his insignia.

There is an app called forum fiend but that's not quite as good I tried it.
Strange I don't have that pm problem. Are you on KitKat?

Ik Tapatalk is also a service, I think it just is a middleman, as it has its own login and whatnot, I don't a similarly featured app exists without the same set up.

Does anyone think this has NKRO?
How hard would it be to add NKRO if I wanted to desolder and mount Cherry switches?

I love these listings 'could do with a clean'.
Is it too much trouble seeing as you're trying to sell the thing?

I had a Datalux keyboard way before I was really into keyboards - IMHO they are truly aweful - especially that double height enter key. What's that about?

Mark.

Will the keycaps from the Datalux fit on Cherry mx stems (assuming its a model with MEI switches)?
Then again, even if they did it looks like they are the wrong shape?

I could not agree more Mark. I had this exact keyboard here. Looks interesting, that´s about it. The switch feels horrible, the whole keyboard has an outlanidsh shape and the layout is "out there" to put it mildly.

I don´t remember if they fit Cherry MX mount. I remember the caps also had a strange shape.

Topre Realforce 87 white 55g. Seller is asking $190 shipped within CONUS. http://www.reddit.com/r/mechmarket/comm ... 55g_conus/

Same as: http://www.ebay.com/itm/151614047244

I really like my version of this keyboard but I don't think I need another.

Found this :

Sadly, it's G83, so not MX compatible (G83-3222SPZ). Also, seller don't want to sell the keyboard alone. :(
