I have the Razer Lycosa right now, it's a few years old now and I kind of gave up on it a few months ago because it was too sticky for comfort. Whether that's because it's old and that's the way rubber goes or I made a mistake in my choice of cleaning fluids or for what ever reason.
Fact is I want a new keyboard and I'd like one that's not like this. All keyboards I can try in shops advertise the stickyness I've grown to dislike as features or have plastic keys that feel like this naturally.
The rest (I heard there are differences between mechanical/rubber and whatnot) I don't really care about as long as it works.
Do you know of any non-plastic keyboards out there? Best I could find where some with a metal casing but plastic keys. My other (last) option would be to just glue another material on top of my keys. Which will probably not go as cleanly as I'd like. Also I'd like to save the effort.
Also this is my first post here so I apologize for any faux-pas that might happen like wrong subforum etc.
My best advice would be to get a mechanical keyboard and then find some custom keycaps that will fit whichever type of switch the keyboard uses.
For example, if you want, you can pick up any keyboard that uses any Cherry MX switch and pick up these metal keys (but beware, your wallet will hate you) http://www.caseking.de/shop/catalog/Eingabegeraete/Key-Caps/King-Mod-Metal-Keycaps-Set-innere-Tasten-unbeschriftet-silber-US::21686.html
But I'd do some more research. I found that within five minutes on google. If you practice your google-fu, you might be able to find something better.
Ok thanks a lot! That's really the only problem with google: you need to have your keyword-spells ready for the finding magic to work. I only looked for 'metal keyboards' and found companys that make those for outdoor ATMs. Metal keycaps are a very good solution.
As far as Mechanical Keyboards go there is the Corsair K70 and K95, also the Das Keyboard 4, all of those boards have aluminum casing, but if you want metal keycaps that is most likely going to have to be after market like these tt esports caps http://ttesports.com/productPage.aspx?p=147&g=ftr#.U_gOOvmwJ-A
If you don't mind the casing being plastic than you can get any mechanical keyboard with Cherry (or usually Kailh switches also) and put those tt esports caps on it but that can start to get kinda expensive. Alternatively you could get almost any Mechanical keyboard and they will have non-sticky plastic keycaps (based on my experiance of owning and using many mechanical keyboards).
If you are really against getting mechanical becaise of the price the Corsair K30 is a Decent rubber dome with what appear to have keycaps with a similar if not identical material for the keycaps as used on its mechanical cousins.
