Anyone else order one?

My "Special Mystery Edition" arrived, unfortunately their definition of "Special Edition" is one that doesn't come with any key caps.

There's an uproar about this and hopefully they'll be sending printed caps out at some point.

In the meantime I've had to improvise with transparent vinyl printer paper and a bunch of 2x2 tiles.

Looks incredibly cool aside from the "mystery" of which key is which! Is it comfortable to type on?

It's not great because it's just tiles, but as the back is studs you can just add whatever bricks you eant to get the right angle.

The proper key caps are transpar5and "sculpted" so should be closer to a regular keyboard feel.

Saying that, I did use it for work all day today, it's just like getting used to a new normal keyboard.
