I didn't like that the manual for the Studio keyboard by HHKB is only available as a website. The website could go down for any number of reasons, so it would be nice to have an entirely offline version. The website is split across many different pages, so it's not as simple as just downloading a si

Gitlab may go down, but you can clone the repo and run the program and then you'll have a permanent offline copy. There is no PDF manual to download for the HHKB studio. The manual is a set of 44 HTML pages that link to eachother, hence the need for a crawler to automatically download them all. My p

Try the HHKB Studio. Or one of the TEX boards. Edit: I love getting downvotes for suggesting reasonable (and significant improvements) replacements for Lenovo’s old offerings. Is it a price issue? Good keyboards cost money.

Is anyone else waiting like me? I think most/everyone here would love to see it, but the reality is that we probably won't. A Topre version would be dependent on Topre to develop (this is probably one of the main reasons why it is MX; besides trying to tap into the MX market, it is something PFU cou

Just get an HHKB studio, it's basically an HHKB but with hotswap MX switches and a trackpoint.

They are two completely different boards, the HHKB Studio is MX Switches and the Type-S is dome switches. The Studio is basically like any other MX keyboard on the market with some variations. If you want the real HHKB feel you would get the Type-S.

The studio is a weird duck. Though not Topre, the switches/caps feel quite nice and silent. The track-point works very well. As well as IBM/Lenovo I would say, not the crap Dell fed users. I would recommend it on a good sale. $400 is getting into Mode Tempo territory (or two HHKB pro territory).

I didn't think I'd like it and i have a pretty solid customized Classic. My Studio is my daily driver, it feels great. Keyreative sells a few options specifically for the studio: https://keyreative.store/collections/hhkb-keycaps including the GHB cluster (separate) If you haven't noticed already - t

The classic and hybrid are good. My hybrid type S still has it's daily driver carrying case. But I'm not convinced I'd ever want a studio. I'm not sure what I'm really getting for the price. I was never a fan since its debut. For that price you can get a Tex Yoda or Tex Yoda II, which is a much more

There's no objectively correct answer here, but chances are that you became interested in the HHKB because of Topre. If you're primarily after the layout, there are cheaper ways to try it out. That said, I also picked up the Studio (after a Pro 2 and a Hybrid), and I love it.
