I really want one of those in clears, but such a pain to Canada with the extra duty and taxes, and now exchange rate sigh.

If the 104-key Green had PBT keycaps, i'd probably buy it on the spot. 170 for a keyboard that doesn't have everything I want is too much in my opinion.

Oh bother. I see my soldering skills are about to get a workout.

At least it is all through-hole. When I saw the keyboard controller I wanted was all SMT I paid the extra $10 to get it assembled instead of in kit form.

No way no how am I up to SMT. My soldering skills started and ended at HeathKits.
