Need some info on this Topre

I know it is extravagantly colored and the regular 108 JP layout.
Is it safe to assume the keys are variable weighted as well?
I have been looking around for info but no luck.
Thanks!

Ugh...reminds me way too much of bad 90s American clothing style! :D

or would this one be all 45g?

They showed that keyboard as an example of their ability to do OEM work. That might be only version of that 'board that exists. I don't recall them mentioning any specs in the article I saw about it. If you can even find one, you will probably want to grab it regardless of weighting.

Enter key kills it for me.

I have a friend in Japan who can get it for me.
It is just outrageously expensive o___o
I sort of rather get the 91UBY though.

Guess no one really knows anything about the ILOVEX because it is so rare.

That's what I'm thinking, loving the melon and mango color mix.

I have come to the conclusion that the ISO enter ain't so bad once you get used to it.

Enter is fine, backspace and right shift are not. Ew JIS layout!

Personally , the size of the space bar kills it for me...

No joke. He's going to need a truck-load of cure if is extradited to the US, unfortunately.

Looks like they ran out of orange keycaps and just decided to randomly throw in some green ones.

EDIT: I just realized ilovex is green, don't know why the 2 and 0 are though.

Actually.. those are the keycaps for ILOVEX. Pretty cheesy, anyway.

that is one of the worse looking keyboards i ever saw. The other was an old vintage Cherry Smurf :lol:

Dunno man, this one is pretty awesome. I would get it, but not use it.

I had two and sold one about a month and a half go or two months.

It's 45g and silent.

The 2 and 0 is coz it's the 20th anniversary of the company.

The keycaps are different from the normal RF keycaps. I am a big RF fan (HHKB does not count as RF to me.) and I have felt nothing like them. They are sub-dyed but yet have this comfy ruibber-ish layer on top? there really isn;t a way to describe them.

The real thing looks better and this is coming from some that prefers TKL. @moogle You really ahve no idea what you're talking about. Seriously.

@sixty You WILL use it. It's a damn joy to use coz of the caps and just the way it feels.

Spacebar-wise, I guess it would be a problem for people who do not tap the bar in the center. But trust me, this isn;t the first jap layout board i have used and you do get used to it eventually. Or you could just simply program the two bottons next to the bar as space as well.

The only problem I found initially with the board was the position of the "(" and ")" ...

This is one of my favourite keyboards and trust me, i've quite a few. Totally worth the money.
