    Hey lads, just wondering, I'm looking at getting a Das Keyboard but I have no idea on how to get one to Ireland, their website only sell to the US, Its not on amazon.co.uk, only amazon.com and none of the sellers ship to ireland, do any of you know a place that sells them? much thanks - Micheál.

    also, sorry if this is the wrong forums, this thread is what refereed me to here

    Is it that specific keyboard you want, or would anther mechanical keyboard suffice?

    Steelseries 7G

    Razor Black Widow

    Razor Black Widow Ultimate

    Or here are a good few Mechanical Keyboards on OCUK

    really all I want is mx cherry blue switches, steelseries 7g uses black if i'm not mistaken and the black widow uses blue, but I'm not a fan of razor. thanks for the link to that website, I had never even heard of it :)

    thanks for that link, I may consider getting the blank keys, just a bit of a learning curve.

    A friend of mine has the Black Widow. While it's a lovely keyboard to type with, I find it very loud. Has a very clackity sound to it. Maybe look at the Black Widow Stealth (or Stealth Ultimate, if you want backlighting)?

    Yeah they're black. After a week or two you don't notice the extra resistance though. It's a weird feeling when your fingers feel like you've been overtraining them though..

    Hello everyone,
    Saw your post and as I work for Das Keyboard, thought I could help you.

    What the hell? That's some impressive Customer Service / Sales department!

    Three hours after a thread among thousands of forums is posted, and they register an account just to help a user out.

    yes, it is great support, they got me on my twitter as well, but signing up to a forum just to give me an answer, thats something i've never seen from a company before, great support guys! unfortunately getdigital wont have the S Pro (UK) in stock until February, eh, worth the wait :)

    thanks for all the suggestions lads, but I think I'll get a Das Keyboard.
