Long time no see!!
I managed to get the other day a brand new HHKB (the Pro Hybrid Type-S model) and I got to admit that I love the sound of this keeb! it definitively sounds better and feels definitively better compared to the other Cherry-MX compatible keyboards I have, and quite an improvement over my Logitech G613 that I used to run on a daily basis (Romer-G is not an awful switch haha). I went for a JAP version because I needed the dedicated arrow keys, but that also brings a whole plethora of issues, so I had to remap the keys for them to do what I needed them to do - and can state that I have done so! the new HHKB software (don't know if it existed before) is a breeze, and the JSON resulting file obeys the standard USB scancode, so even if you want a key that is not in use, I assume you can just edit the file yourself and add it! (although you're going to have a hard time finding which key does what at first)...
I've had this keyboard for a couple of weeks now and I have to admit it is great to use, Bluetooth is super easy to use, no issues with multiple keys registering (I think on BT is 6KRO), and such a small footprint!
Ok it's prohibitively expensive for no reason whatsoever I admit it, but it's hard to find a keyboard with the right key layout, the right features at a decent price (60% remappable keys, BT, USB-C, AA Batteries, etc...), completely built in PBT (Pro Hybrids are)... and nothing can beat how quiet it is compared to the other keyboards!
I guess the only thing I would need is to figure out how I can get custom keycaps to actually say what I have them mapped to! (lubing, and replacing the stems too, man this is a very expensive hobby)
Any fans of this keyboard, or any other keyboard enthusiasts here?
