Drop Mech Keys Meetup Recap - Thanks for Visiting!
As you may have seen, we just hosted our first meetup in quite a while here at Drop HQ (Corsair HQ, but they seem to like us enough :) )! It was a blast to get to meet so many enthusiasts local to the bay area—it had been 10 years since I was last hanging out with keyboard nerds in the bay, at KeyCon 2014. We had a great time hosting everyone at the offices, checking out all the very nice boards y'all brought, and sharing some of our own projects/spaces! I knew it would be fun to host in the Game Room when I first saw it in person, but seeing it come to fruition was still so cool. Alright, I'll stop blabbering on now. xD Picture time! (Oh, real quick - there will be more of these! Stay tuned for more info and to catch the next one!)

Just because a keyboard supports Bluetooth and has a battery, it doesn’t mean it won‘t work with a regular cable. My Anne Pro has great Bluetooth, and it also works hardwired. I can even disconnect he battery, and it still types like a dream. It cost $80, it works with my iPad, and it has full RGB. I see so many ridiculously expensive keyboards on this site, and they rarely ever have Bluetooth. For me, it’s an absolutely necessary feature for something I will be carrying around in my backpack.
That said, I've been a Thinkpad user for the past 15 years, so I'm used to trackpoints. YMMV.
