no need to reverse engineer them, the ADB protocol was fully documented from the start and is a super-simple one-wire serial bus

same on all counts and it's like heaven on earth

saw a set of pbt backlit keycaps where the numbers were next to the symbols so the backlghit shone through both but it was out of stock and anyway I'm not sure how close to the sun I really want to fly, you know?

Kinesis is 10x better than both the HHK2 pro and filco that I've had, so I'm going to confirm this. Topre makes cherry mx feel like cheap poo poo but the layout and shape more than make up for it.
