    They are XT are they not? Do they require mods to work with PC?

    You can still pretend to type on it. Perfect for those moments when you're supposed to be working from home and the boss calls - just rattle your hands around on the keys and he/she will be left in no doubt that you're a productive member of staff.

    Have any of your guys and/or gals got a TKL or full sized keyboard (ANSI) with browns or reds that is up for sale, or potentially swap/PX for my HPE 87 with blacks?

    There was a guy on DT selling a full sized Ducky Shine with Browns but I would rather get it shipped from the UK, not Germany.

    I might be tempted to part with my G2 Pro TKL with reds if the right offer is made. I wouldn't be looking to swap though, I want to buy a Nexus 4 and I'm thinking of cunning ways to fund it...

    Is a nice article and I like the cm switch tester. It's better than my switch tester which is "buy all the keyboards you can"

    Yeah, it was still cheap enough for me to use for collection purposes and give BS a good pretend try though. :D I'll probably get round to getting a converter for it eventually though.

    Anyone know someone who transplants switches? Might be interested in having the switches on my BlackWidow changed.

    And what would that offer need to be :D

    I just bought a Nexus 4 after having my HTC Desire since release and it really not being able to keep up with the latest roms I have been forcing upon it. For £200, the Nexus 4 is a no brainer, I ordered mine yesterday morning and it arrived at work this afternoon.
