Realfore 10th year anniversary keyboard released in Korea. It's first release as 10th anniversary year Realforce model over the world. (it's not clear to be released or not to be release this model in other countires)

It use a diffrent color keycap like a Sky blue as functional keys and some medium bright gray as character keys. As my thinking, it's quite cool, definetly rather than Realforce black model. :) Also it use keyboard coating like a HHK Professional II. So it give a some coloring and feeling rather than existed Realforce keyboard. Red color LED is installed in this model, it is not bad feeling with considering color variation.

All things and price are same to existed Realforce models.

Total six models are released as a KR printed 87 regular, diffrent 55g, slient and US printed 87 regular, diffrent 55g, silent models.

  

Testing Two Shot Keycap

Posted by 키보도 키보드 - Keyboard : 2011. 9. 18. 02:55


I tested two type color keycap.
One is Cream cheese keycap with green kyecap. It is ideal  for using in beige or white keyboard. All keycap are made of two shot keycap. Total 87 keycaps are full compatible for Majestouch Series (or compatible keyboard like a DAS II, Ozone or others).

I test cream cheese color for more bright and soft feeling and green color is easy to read and ideal as accent color.

The other is Graphite color keycap. Aleady some users already made a gray tone keyboard. So, I use a grahpite color, it's easy to see, some special compare to simple gray color. And I use a dark gray as accent color. This color is similliar to black color but real feeling is some diffrent. It's more soft and look like a modern style.

Make a color keycap is not easy. As my experience, there is no need more color or color variation. Proper two tone color is rather than more complicatied color variation.

Intresting Mechanical keyboard, LETIS

Posted by 키보도 키보드 - Keyboard : 2011. 7. 22. 18:52

It's not a final product. It just under making to be release.
LETIS is multifunctional mechanical keyboard. As I know, it's first retail mechanical keyboard can be connected to Jog Shuttle and Joystick. Even LETIS a prodvide coloful backlight function and Dual input function (One keyboard, simultaneous input to tow PCs).

Also, lt's include small LCD in joystic module. It's quite interesting components if keyboard devloper provide proper function as S/W.

Anyway, it have been making to be release, it's not clear whether this model is for professonals or general customers. Anyway, it's have a value to challenge as mechnical function keyboard.

I will continually track new information on LETIS keyboard in Korea.

Thank you.

TypeNow Solid Group Buying.

Posted by 키보도 키보드 - Keyboard : 2011. 7. 22. 18:42
Many people asked me about group buying.
Say in brief, it's possible.

If there are over 10PCS as group buying and customer can recevie all or over 3PCS per person and can share keyboard to others in same area, we can consider some benefit of unit price and shipping costs.

Take it easy, just contact me as my email adress (kant1971@hitel.net) freely.

Thank you.

Best Regards,
David Han (General Manager, IOMANAI)

What type of remover do you use?
For changing keycap or keyboard clearing, keycap remover is needed to keyboard fans.

Introduced simple but effective keycap remover.

It's ready to 1W and 1.25W keycap. How to use it? simple. Just a insert keycap remover to keycap as vertical way. And just drag it.
That's all.


  

Recent flowness of mechanical keyboard

Posted by 키보도 키보드 - Keyboard : 2011. 5. 1. 07:42
Where is mechanical keyboard going?

I will check some points to this. Percentage means possible to move for these proint as my thinking.

FR4 (60%) - Now quite many vendors use a FR4 Material board. I think it is not absoute.
But anyway it may hep improve of PCB's durablility and it provide more clean key felling. it may increase original cost some. But difrrence is not a big.

Aluminium body (10%) - Except indurstail alumnium frame body keyboard, it may started from Korea. it shows anyway finest material feeling and natural color. Of cousre, it is quite expensive than other material's housing. You can see detail information to our TypeNow Solid in detail. Antoher importan part of metal body keyboard is key felling. User can feel solidness and clean key felling but it may cause some shockness to type. Personally, I tunned up all things on aluminium body keyboard, keyfeelling is so far so good. But other peoples opinion can be diffrent.

Anyway, I listended Taiwan people started to make aluminium body keyboard. Althoug it is quite difficult to make a mass quantity, it is possible to be released another ready made aluminum keyboard to user.

PBT keycap (20%) - Already Taiwan vendor start making PBT keycap as mass quantity. We can see it on Ducky or Poker X keyboard or as other acessories keycap set. Do you typed keycap that made of PBT? it is some expensive, but keycap feeling is quite good. You can find a some falut on new PBT keycap, but I think it is best choice unitil now.

On a PBT keycap, problem is making cost. It may smilliar to make a tooling for whole housing of keyboard or even over somewhat than make a keyboard housing. Some people prefer Cherry's old keycap. Although i agree old cherries keycap is not a bad, it is no perpefct solution to keycap. I have been using old cherry keycap to Majestouch keyboard, It's not comfortable than normal height keycap like a Majestouch or other keyboard.

Anyway it is quite difficult to be usde a PBT keycap to all mechanical keyboards. But it seems some costed down if mechanical keyboard with PBT Keycap sells more and more or other vendor make a new PBT keyboard keycap as new tooloing. :)

Coloring keycap (50%) - World of keyboard fan is quite narrow. Coloring keycap is just visiual acesssories for keyboard. But, many keyboard fans like it. We already know many color keycaps are selling in China.

More and more coloring can be introduce to over the world keyboard fans as keycap set.  Althoug many people are interested in it,  it seems not easy these color keycap be installed to keyboard. It is issue on cost and how to set up color scheme naturally.

I think vendors consider to make a more advanced and sophiscated color setting to keycaps.


I checked some points. Anyway, Mechnical keyboard looks a quite conservative but it be changed bit by bit.
