According to here, their head office is in Sweden.

Mionix mice are rather popular.
If it's anything like their mice, then I think this is going to be a very quality keyboard. Definitely going to be picking it up now over the Sidewinder X6. But, as with their mice again, it will probably thin out your wallet somewhat.

I love my Mionix Naos mouse. Best mouse I've ever used. I'm picking up this keyboard without a doubt, I'm already sold on the quality.

Who's next on the Cherry MX bandwagon, Logitech?

Have you used a Black Widow? It's actually well built. My only problem with it is the damn Blue Switches...but that's only because a particular game I play requires super fast key presses and I haven't gotten used to the full release yet.

I would like to try this keyboard out too. Interested in the pricing...
At first I was like, NO WAY GREEN LEDS AND IT MATCHES MY NAOS 5000?

But then I was like, gross, only black switches.(According to picture, hopefully they have reds.)

*Also, I don't know why people say Mionix is such uber quality. My NAOS 5000's buttons are cheapo. The left click button caves in if you put a lot of pressure near the side that's close to the scroll wheel, and the right click squeaks(doesn't squeak, more of a friction noise/feel) if you put pressure on it and move it around similar to how a cheapo rubber dome keyboard would if you put too much pressure on well-used keys. Also that button caves in on the side too.

Other than the physical build of the buttons, the thing is rock solid.
Sounds like you got a bad mouse, because my Naos 5000 doesn't have any of those issues.
I'm not particularly happy that they've decided to use black switches over brown and/or blue but it's mechanical.
Hmm...if you can change the led's on the mouse. I'm wondering if those on this keyboard will be 'cycle-able'.

Haters gonna hate, I dont see how this keyboard would be any more durable that that of razer or any other brand of a keyboard.

But I do like to try these out, they say black is best for gaming and blue is for typing and worse for gaming. I find the blues almost perfect for gaming.
depends on what games you're playing, but this is a subjective field
Finally what I been looking for, I'm getting this no matter the price

Watch it have the most horrendous layout ever.
Should at least beat Xarmor or Ducky quality.
