Arrived today, on the west coast. Works perfectly on Mac, no setup or anything needed (apart from the generic OS X "derp what kind of keyboard do you have" prompt).
The switches on these are lighter than the other Kailh Brown keyboard I have, which is also made by Azio. I vastly prefer these - it sounds quieter since I don't need to apply as much strength when typing. The lightness is comparable to the Cherry MX Blue switches on the other Das Keyboard that I use (if you ignore the 'click').
The color modes on this are very fun, and I don't think I'll ever get bored, since here are 6 modes, some of which have different submodes. My only complaint is there is no 'splash' from the key you press (e.g. if I press 'e', a splash of color emits from that key). My guess is that the animations + programming would be too much, but honestly, it's like complaining that I don't get free champagne at my house.
The volume knob is also great to use. Unfortunately, on OS X, every click of the volume wheel is 2 squares of volume, which may be a deal breaker for some. I have to be more sensitive when I want to slightly change the volume, but otherwise it feels very nice and lets me whip my volume back and forth easily. Muting is simple too, just press in.
