Anyone know of any good Japanese Keyboards? By that I mean specifically Japanese, not Japanese-English(Bilingual) styles. Ones that only have JP on them. Wherever I look they all still have a bunch of English on em :x.

Thanks for helping.

Well generally, English is a must on any digital devices, regardless of your primary language. I doubt there's any that doesn't have English on it's keyboard. At most you'll find both Japanese and English.

Do you mean something like a hiragana keyboard or like a keyboard with home, delete, etc in Japanese? If you mean the latter, I doubt there are any like it since every keyboard I've seen, even in south eastern countries, have those in English. If you mean a keyboard with no English whatsoever, that's impossible since the English alphabet is essential to programming, unless you plan to do it in binary or something, which would be hilariously impractical.

Well I wasn't expecting any keyboards to have them for the home / F# / etc buttons but I was expecting there to be at least a few Hiragana keyboards... As in no ABCs.

I highly doubt anything like that exists, since it'd be pretty much unusable. Even in Japan, the English alphabet would be necessary for daily tasks like typing in the URLs for websites, let alone troubleshooting from command line and similar tasks. At least I don't see the point in mass manufacturing such a keyboard where most people even in Japan will not use.

... Huh? Umm, I'm talking about the letters displayed on the buttons... Not what the buttons actually punch into the computer... Like, even if my keyboard doesn't have any JP characters on it it still types JP when I tell it to... The opposite would be true as well.

@ Maxie, Yeeaaah but you seee.... My keyboard is like, carpeted in dead skin so rather than cleaning it and dealing with OH MY WHAT IS THAT I'd rather just... Buy one I like better anyways... :3
