KB32
Tiger-Heli:
I'll chime in here as well ...
There were four issues with the original TOKN's - one of which seems to have been addressed.
First was the issue of ghosting - which I will wait for skippy0420's results, but it seems to be taken care of.
The other is the issue of programmability via software.
Personally, I only use two emulators that would require a different codeset - Train Simulator and Nebula Model 2. And for Model 2, I use a workaround (use the top row of buttons instead of the bottom ones), so that isn't an issue either.
It is a drawback to the encoder, but not as huge as people make it out to be.
Perfomance is likely not as good (response time) as a KeyWiz (Gp-Wiz) or I-Pac.
There is no Shift Key/Shazaaam! Key function.
Essentially, I look at the KB16 as essentially a keyboard hack, with the advantage of being able to select what keys are used (and the disadvantage that you only have 16 inputs where a hack would have all 104 with most only useable as admin keys). The KB32 would be somewhere between a KeyWiz Eco/I-PAC and a keyboard hack.
