Frustration with Razor. (Keyboard..)

[Keen_Interest]

I live in the UK, and therefore I'm used to the UK keyboard layout, and I like there to be a £ sign on my keyboard. However, I find myself frustrated with Razor as they offer the Blackwidow Ultimate 2013 in the UK layout, but the not the Blackwidow Ultimate Stealth 2013. 

 

I don't actually know whether I will prefer Browns, Blues or even Reds yet, I'm hoping to test Browns and Reds over the summer (by borrowing some friends keyboards for a while) but I seem to be unable to find and Brown switch mechanical keyboards, that I like the look of, which are in a UK layout. Its very frustrating...

Have you looked at the Logitech G710+. That keyboard uses brown switches and comes with a UK layout

Logitech G710+ would be perfect for you I'm not sure but corsair are releasing there new keyboards with cherry mx brown switches if you can wait

Yeah, I've looked at the G710+, not a very pretty keyboard, but that may be what I end up going for...

Maplin have some corsair keyboards in stock. They are red switches but you could always ask to try them out.

You could also look at the Das Keyboard Model S: Professional Silent: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Das-Keyboard-Model-Professional-Silent/dp/B00BPAZDMY/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1370769345&sr=8-1&keywords=das+keyboard It uses brown switches aswell

What you could do is use a program like Keytweak to change the buttons around on a keyboard, you could change the $ to a £ if you what easily, just Google it.

QPad keyboards come in Blacks, Browns, Blues and Reds.

Ducky Shine 2 or if you wait for a bit, Shine 3. I've got a G710+ and it's been great.

Looks at thread title. First reaction:

 

RazEr goddamnit! It's a crime to mis-spell company names  :angry:

On topic: What you posted made almost none, if any sense. Why are you frustrated with Razer for not offering UK layout on the Blackwidow Ultimate Stealth when you don't even know what switch type preference you have yet?

Not to mention other factors that can affect your purchase such as noise tolerance for surroundings, which is a pretty big factor when you're going for MX Blues. Go try out the different switch types to get a feel of what you like, make a list of features you would like to see on your keyboard then start choosing a keyboard that fits your criteria. From how you wrote your post it seems that you're already dead set with getting a Razer keyboard with no prior knowledge of mechanical keyboards at all, weird.
