I have this keyboard, and it's surprisingly nice. It's clicky, but not overly so…just enough to give you a tiny bit of tactile/audible feedback. Mine didn't come with the little joystick, just the big button pair. The battery lasts a pretty long time before needing recharged. Dunno if the battery is accessible/replaceable; for a minimal-led board like this I would have preferred it use a couple AA batteries.

If you like the look of this board, get it! It IS a novelty keyboard, but it's also really well made.

Does anyone know if the matching numpad ever goes on sale? Or does anyone know of another mech numpad that is also an independent calculator?

Agree. I got this keyboard on a Woot deal a few months ago. It's well made and has nice feedback.

I also like that I can switch between the 2.4ghz dongle and Bluetooth with a knob. I switch between my work laptop and my home desktop.

I had to get the numpad though. Really annoying for work without the numpad.

The 108 key version just released. I got mine for Christmas so I haven't had it super long but I did come from a WASD CODE with MX Greens which was a $200 keyboard and I think I actually prefer this one.

This is a GREAT keyboard. I paid full price and it's nicely weighted and has just the right clickiness and response. The big programmable buttons are pretty nice - I have one programmed to lock my laptop and the other one to take screen captures. The joystick is meh. I found no use for it so it's back in the box.

It has heft and looks great. At $70 this is a steal.

Want to sell the joystick? For some reason, mine didn't come with one.

Does anyone have any cool uses for those big buttons? I think they are neat but I'm curious how y'all use them.

I work at Nintendo, so getting this keyboard was basically a requirement. It's amazing. The tactile feel of the key switches is perfect, and they're clicky but nowhere near obnoxiously loud. Everyone who sees it and uses it wants one for themselves. This is a great deal, and I think I might get another one to replace my Razer keyboard at home
