According to SweClockers they wanted to release the keyboard during DreamHack between 24th to 27th November in Webhallen's shop they'll have available there. Later on they'll be available in more manufacturers.

The keyboard itself is identical to the previous one, except the switches.

Price is 899 SEK (which is $129.96).

SteelSeries:
The force that is necessary to register key presses is 20% lighter than the standard Cherry Black switches version of the SteelSeries 6Gv2 – making it an ideal keyboard for users who need rapid and precise movements during high intensity gameplay.

Direct link to web shop.

The prices are getting lower. It does not feel that long ago that a 6GV2 cost more than 1000 SEK.

I would consider this if it wasn't for the big-ass enter...

I find the right shift-key (or rather that extra key to the left of it) much worse than the enter-key. This is like a Japanese layout, which is impossible to use for me.

Also, hello back!

Yeah, in normal ISO both shifts are in same distance. This the right one is further. BTW nice red plate/pcb on board ;D

This is great news mostly because a Steelseries board would have a good chance of turning up at the local techstore. Me and others would be able to feel those red cherries before ordering a red cherry board!
