This is one of the few keyboards I ever returned.
What's really cool and unmatched is the programming ability once you find the software hidden deep in the internet. The keycaps are "standard" sized, I simply put my Vortex PBT Doubleshots on the keyboard. The stock caps have an odd profile and terrible font.
But what really really breaks the deal with this keyboard are two major issues:
Connector: this keyboard has an apple lightning style plug and comes with a matching cable. No other lightning cables work ! Apple or mfi cables WILL NOT WORK and you are stuck with the flimsy crappy cable that came with the keyboard. Epic fail - so much wasted potential.
Compatibility: I wanted to take this keyboard with me when seeing customers and it's ideal for that due to the compact size and layout. But I just couldn't make it work properly with the thin clients at my main customer site. Occasionally a keypress was recognized and toggling though USB modes and Mouse settings didn't help at all. The keyboard did work fine with my pc at home and other compact keyboard work flawlessly with the thin clients (poker 3, pure pro)
I was very sorry this keyboard turned out to be such a disapointment. So much potential ...

Wodanthat 'terrible profile' is actually cherry profile and the software is available on corus kb
have to agree on the connector though, gonna see how camera connection cables (Female USB to lightning) work with the keyboard

DraxorI never said terrible profile, reconsider your quote. The download on corus-kb.com is (was?) missing a .dll file, got instructions here how do download it from a chinese website.
Oh and if that's cherry profile, I have to reconsider my skidata+ pledge...

DraxorMind if I ask if you had any success with different cables? I'd be very interested in buying one of these if I could make sure that there were spare cables I could buy for it.

indefaI don't use an iPhone and haven't ordered any third party cables yet due to people reporting them as not working (since noppoo changed the pin out)
I have tried a lightning to usb connector cable (since that was the only thing someone said he hasn't tried yet) and it didn't work either.
I'll probably try to route the connectors in a way to mount a mini usb instead of the lightning connector
