Me too. Even if I am going to have to figure out what to do for the extra keycaps.

I just ordered the re-legendables; my setup uses all 34 of the function keys for special functions on a 122 layout, and binds actual F1-F12 to a function layer. I can't imagine I'll be able to get custom-legend double-shots the way I can cajole Unicomp to dye-sublimate custom keycaps for me.

That's what I did, too. Since I use my M122 for actual 3270 keyboard emulation, I'll probably make up labels for the extra 22 keys. Not ideal, but...

I just got mine in, and it's amazing to type on, the feel is buttery smooth yet with that tactile mechanical feedback - I didn't think the Model F repro could be surpassed but this did it.

Setup was painless and I'm more than satisfied - the wait was worth it!

I do have one question - my fingers are having a hard time adapting to this style keycap - is there a Cherry MX Set in existence that is basically on par with the Model M / F in terms of look and feel that I might be able to use on this?

EDIT: I found something on Amazon that might work, going to give it a try.
