Yes, we are in the process of talking to an admin over there who can help us start it up. Do you have any recommendations of a good one from experience who can do it well?

Any info on iso versio? The PCB seems to support it.

Due to the limited production numbers, they are only able to mass produce the ANSI English model, but it is fully ISO compatible when the proper ISO keyboard (ie UK English) is chosen in Windows. With a couple of key relocations and workarounds ...

Thanks for getting the ball rolling.

I don't want to dampen enthusiasm here, but I'd like to make a couple of suggestions.

Haha thanks for the feedback and embedding the vid for me. =)

I was given one of these keyboards from a my friend when I went to Taiwan last month. I think it's pretty unique of a keyboard so I thought I'd show it off to everyone. It's a KBtalKing backlit keyboard with anime girl design.
