CM Mechanical Keyboard and Cherry BROWN Switch

[kelvincool]

Yes it's the UK layout, they did the same thing with the black version, the black UK version has been out for a while but lots of websites still use the wrong image for some reason. I guess it's not surprising that they put up pictures of the ansi layout as the UK layout hasn't been in production for long in terms of the browns. You know it's the UK layout by looking at the model id.

Im really tempted with the Storm trigger with brown switches, hopefully my first mechanically keyboard will the correct choice.

Patiently waiting on the CM Cherry Brown's to arrive. Looking forward to these as they seem comparable to the FILCO.

Yh, hopefully theres not a quality control issue or its just a day late shipping issue if anything.

But that's UK layout and brown switches, is that correct?
Photos show ANSI US layout...

sorry for the delay i have just returned from my summer holiday.

keyboards are UK layout

But i just heard from coolermaster dispatch date from factory in Taiwan is ETD of 20th SEP due to a shortage of cherry keys.

we are asking for support for a Air shipment straight from the factory to scan UK warehouse (this is about 4 to 6 days so the ETA is hopefully around 26th SEP for scan to receive stock) otherwise its 6 weeks via SEA... i will cover all pre-orders without price increase as its likely the air shipment will take the landed cost higher than what the retail price but i will margin mix with a sea-shipment to try and keep the same RRP.

i will update as i have more news...

Hi Pete,
noticed yesterday that ETA for these changed to 28th September - does it mean that CM confirmed air shipment and those keyboards will be here that day?

[phinix]

Well, I pre-ordered one, so hopefully they will be here at the end of next month...

EDIT: I received email about delay of delivery. So will be waiting.. and biting my nails....

That's convenient! I've been looking for a keyboard with Cherry Brown switches for my new build, but I'm a bit loath to drop £120 on the Filco Majestouch-2. I'll be putting a preorder in
