In Europe I often buy from Keygem and Eloquentclicks

When you buy something, it's not WHERE it's shipped from, but HOW it's shipped that determines the shipping time, if you choose DHL Express for example they deliver in 3 days no matter where you are

What you need is a keyboard that can be reprogrammed...

So first, I assume you know the 65% layout right?

If not, you can always map the right mod cluster to become arrow keys on a 60%. How often do you REALLY NEED right Alt, right Ctrl, right Shift and Menu key? Not for me, so on my 60% they become the arrow keys

Then I map the FN key to Caps Lock, I can access most functions with my left hand, plus you can reduce the size + weight of your keyboard

Well, try and you will see why :D

If you map the FN key to Caps Lock, then you can access most functions you need with your left hand, plus you can reduce the size + weight of your keyboard

If you need arrow keys then 65% will solve that problem

I used to feel the same

Until I map the FN key to Caps Lock, then it changes everything

I can access most functions I need with my left hand, and reduce the size + weight of my keyboard

If you need arrow keys then 65% will solve that problem

Uhm...75% is very popular already

I think what we need more now is more creative layouts that incorporate the numpad, I love 1800 and 96% but they are not the only way to do it

However I do admit that 75% is a much better compromise between compactness and usability, also 75% can showoff keycaps better than 60% (more keycaps)

Sorry to hear that man!

From what I read this is an issue from R2, and continues to be here in R3, really RIDICULOUS for a board of this price to be this bad

You could probably sell the case and take the loss this time, then buy something else
