JP Mini Keyboard 2 Revisions

Post#1 » Thu May 19, 2022 6:44 pm

I recently purchased a Hello Kitty Clear Keyboard and this one has the two feet and lines design at both the sides of the keyboard... I noticed on my JP Clear Mini Keyboard there isn't two feet (at each outward side) to properly pop out the keyboard so it stands at a angle...I was wondering which one of the two came out first and if there were other mini keyboards (Im sure the Blue Clear one is the same?) besides this one that had those feet?? (ie Black Mini Keyboard, Pink Mini Sakura Wars Keyboard, ect.)

The Japanese versions of the keyboards fall into three main categories: HKT-7600, HKT-7601, and HKT-4000.
*HKT-7600 is an early version and is not included in this topic.

HKT-4000:Clear, Black, SakuraTaisen
HKT-7601:Kity Pink, Kity Blue

The HKT-4000 and HKT-7601 are different in terms of where the cable comes out, in addition to what you are pointing out.

Their respective release dates are as follows
HKT-7601:11/25/1999.
HKT-4000(Clear):08/17/2000.
HKT-4000(Black):12/21/2000
HKT-4000(SakuraTaisen):12/20/2001

How wierd that the model numbers are decending in terms of versions 1 and 2...thanks for the info, I guess they decided against the feet for unknown reasons, (maybe they were scared of kids where ripping them off and choking on them?)
