Cooler Master Novatouch TKL Keyboard
Cooler Master now releases the product in the EU, we are talkiing about the NovaTouch TKL, a hybrid capacitive keyboard designed for high speed, extreme accuracy, and total comfort in the ultimate typing experience.
The Cooler Master NovaTouch TKL provides the ultimate typing experience for all - including the eSports professional and the expert typist. To achieve this, the NovaTouch TKL uses a Japanese made hybrid capacitive switch with a uniform 45 gram actuation force and a 1mm actuation point. This Cooler Master exclusive unique switch has an ultra smooth press, a tactile trigger point, and a rapid debounce time. The debounce time is 3x faster than traditional mechanical switches, allowing Actions per Minute (APM) to not be hindered by hardware limitations. Additionally, the switch is designed with a custom stem that is fully compatible with Cherry MX keycaps for keyboard customization enthusiasts.
The NovaTouch TKL is equipped internally with N-key rollover and anti-ghosting technology for improved typing accuracy. The keyboard also comes with on-the-fly repeat rate adjustment keys for quick control of key repetition. The keyboard runs at a 1000 Hz / 1 ms polling rate and is supported by 128kb of on-board memory for swift response of the functional media control keys, repeat rate changes, and key rollover to ensure that it will never let you down.
Functional Form
The NovaTouch TKL is a compact, tenkeyless keyboard that is perfect for those who favor portability and ergonomics. The smaller size keeps the mouse closer to your center to reduce shoulder stress during long periods of use and makes the keyboard easier to carry between events, meetings, and computer stations. NovaTouch TKL connects with a sturdy, detachable, micro-USB connector with a 1.8 meter braided cable designed for improved longevity alongside ease of access compared to other keyboard connections.
Availability
The NovaTouch TKL is available as of today in North America and Asia and will become available in Europe in mid November.

Now this looks interesting. I wonder how these switches relate to Topre, and what's the end-user price.
I'd really like to see a version with some macro keys to the left, extra multimedia keys (may be rubber dome), and detachable numeric keypad...
I haven't seen many mechanical keyboards with the functionality you mentioned, especially since this design is specifically to save space. Logitech and Razer both offer those, but they're also huge keyboards. Personally, I love my Filco Minila's compact design.

I've been considering a 10-key-less keyboard for a while now, simply because I hardly ever use the keys, and it would allow me to put a Logitech G13 left of it.

I'm a Topre guy, so when the Novatouch TKL was made available in my neck of the woods two to three weeks back, I not only grabbed one.......I grabbed two! Having fun using my custom Cherry keycaps on them, below is a pic of my Novatouch TKL's, one with Miami Key caps and the other with Sanctuary key caps. Yes, I'm aware that the spacebar on the Sanctuary set had been flipped over, was experimenting with the feel of flipped spacebar, I've since flipped it back to its original position.

How do you like it, compared to Topre and other keyboards you tried?
OUCH!
I've just checked the US prices. That's $200.

$200 for ten-key-less keyboard without any extra bling bling. It will hurt, especially if they'll use mighty $1=1€ conversion. That's pretty much the same price as for low-run keyboards like TEK.
