What is SpaceFN and why you should give it a try
The SpaceFN concept - setting up your space key as a layer switch when held - is probably one of the most useful tweaks in the keyboard hobby. Let me explain how it works. My SpaceFN article on kbd.news made some rounds recently - quite surprisingly given the age of this concept. This piece you're reading is a condensed version of the full post. If you're left with unanswered questions, you'll most likely find the info you're looking for in the original write-up. On my imaginary top list of the most useful keyboard features, tweaks and hacks, SpaceFN would deserve a podium finish for sure. But what makes it so special? In short: SpaceFN is easy to implement, easy to learn, costs nothing, can be used with any keyboard, and can improve your productivity instantly. I will list its benefits below, but can state right at this point that the SpaceFN concept, setting up your space key as a layer switch when held, is clearly one of the most useful tweaks in the keyboard hobby....

So I totally missed the drop because the insufficient payment notification which went straight to my junk mail so I wasn't able to pay for my K-Type in time.
I have been waiting for about a year to receive this keyboard and need it for research purposes since I am a Computer Science Student doing research in human-computer interaction and was hoping to receive this keyboard by December since my paper is due before Christmas. The K-Type is perfect because it provides multiple programmable function layers as well as lights (this could help with conditions such as dyslexia and other disorders)
I'm looking for the K-Type with Halo True Switches just so you guys know.
I know this is a long shot, but I was wondering if anybody was willing to sell their K-Type to me for a higher price or do a trade of one of the keyboards/computer stuff I have:
1.) DAS Keyboard 4 - Cherry MX Brown 2.) WASD Code Full Size - Cherry MX Clear 3.) Happy Hacking Professional 2 type S - Topre 45 gram 4.) Realforce 87U - Topre 55 gram 5.) Filco Majestouch Minila - Cherry MX Brown
Every keyboard comes with a Chiton case and a wrist rest except for the DAS Keyboard 4
If any of you are able to help me out with this (you don't like the keyboard) PLEASE LET ME KNOW, I would really appreciate it since I don't think I can wait any longer!
Thanks!
