My Wooting two HE finally arrived after four months! The geekiest of geeky keyboards. 

 

Only mild annoyance is I have to assemble all the effing keys myself

Nice. Reckon one of these might be my next keyboard.

Keys are super responsive and you can program them to have multiple functions per key since they register per 0.1mm movement not just one overall click.

My first dabble with an analogue keyboard. Instead of normal "on/off" switches, it has linear displacement so you can essentially set the switch activation height, via software, to top and bottom of the switch and any 0.1mm in between. 

 

It's really nice to use as a keyboard as you can make the adjustments to suit how much you depress the keys and adjust accordingly. 

 

Useful for games too. It can present as "analogue" so when you press wasd to move, it can present that as a displacement similar to a joystick giving you finer controls.

 

For VR it's handy too as you can map the same key to different actions ie, single press, long press etc. meaning I'm only using fewer buttons which is handy in VR.

Not until you fit every single key you realise how many are on a keyboard. 

 

Will say though it was an immensely satisfying task!

3 fookin hours in PC World, finally decided on a product, out of stock. Can't order, nada. Great!

Samsung have one but it's £485 more.

Start again then. Splendid, not!
