A3000 vs A2000 keyboard
« on: September 07, 2012, 04:35:47 PM »
I think the sizes of keys is the same for both models, though on observing my German A3000 keyboard and a UK A1500 (basically an A2000) keyboard, I've noticed that the lettering on the A3000 is cleaner and a tad bit smaller. For instance, the tab key's arrows on the A3000 key point almost exactly at the horizontal line. On the A2000 key, they are *inside* the horizontal line, losing their "pointedness".

Is this the case for US/UK/AUS A3000 keyboards, or is the lettering exactly the same as that for US/UK/AUS A2000 keyboards?

Reason asking is that I'm looking to switch keys but I'd rather know if I'll maintain a consistent US/UK/AUS model factory look. Otherwise I'll just try and get a US A3000 keyboard from the bays.

I know C= management didn't give much hoot about design let alone worry about key lettering, but FWIW, I'd like to figure out this inconsistent mess of theirs.

Thanks for the link, though they seem to be obsessing over the switch mechanism than letter design.
