a6809It doesn't work that way. It's totally possible but It's also not written in stone. This may be the last drop ever on this board or it may run many more times. Or the manufacturer may stop using POM and switch to double shot abs,.. no telling. It depends on supply and demand.
Get what you want while you can is my suggestion. Maybe two weeks later POM drops here, oh well, the nature of things. If you got your board, be happy with it.

MTKMKIWhat POM? are they the key caps? and is it better than ABS or PBT key caps?
Also, how is this Topre - Clone keyboard loudness when typing compare to all of the Cherry MX ones? thx. Im looking for a quiet typing keyboard but all of the Cherry MX they all pretty loud, even the Brown or Red.

jincuteguyPOM is a type of plastic for keycaps yes. It is comparable to PBT. Both last longer than ABS without as much wear on the keys.
You can see videos on the typing sound of this keyboard or any Topre. Not much difference between them all imo. Not enough to worry about. Some people are really worried about the type of Thock sound the keyboard makes. I prefer it to be silent as much as possible, lol so less Thock for me thanx.
All of them can be pretty silent though if you type lightly. This keyboard also has sound dampers installed so it's about as quiet as they get. But i would say that the noise level is similar to brown switch in general, i had a brown switch keyboard with O-rings, it wasn't too loud to me. Without O-rings maybe it could be with heavy typing.
Anything i type on is loud because i type really hard naturally, so everything sound like bam bam bam., lol. My desk even shakes with a hundred pound crt monitor on it.
