FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS/FEEDBACK:
- Does the keyboard work TheA500 Mini Amiga console by Retro Games Ltd?
Yes it does. We have already tested this, see image below. It works great! - Will a Help Key be included with my keyboard keycaps?
Not as standard, however if you really require a Help key then please let us know, we may be able to provide one with your order so that you can swap an existing key to become an Amiga-style Help key in your desired position. We have had Help keycaps made in limited quantities, we can't supply them with every order. - Can I attach this to original hardware?
You can, but you'll require our conversion kit which sits inside the keyboard case and changes the cable to use a DIN plug instead of USB: https://www.simulant.uk/shop/amiga-usb-to-ps2-din - Will more languages/regional layouts be added?
The keyboard base model is British English ISO, but we have also added extra keycaps to our store so that international language layouts can be achieved such as AZERTY, Nordic keys, QWERTZ and US # symbol location etc. - Can the firmware be reflashed?
We are looking into this currently and will update news on this soon. - Is this compatible with the Vampire Standalone / V4 by Apollo?
Not currently. We've used a very compatible Linux/Mac/Windows USB keyboard, so hopefully Apollo may add support in the future. - What about import tax and EU IOSS? Will Brexit impact my order?
Our store is IOSS registered, this means we will add EU import taxes to be paid at checkout. If your order is under €150 then no extra fees or charges will be payable on receiving your order. For those outside of the EU, any extra tax or fees after shipping will be down to your own regional Import/Export laws and will work in the usual way. Brexit should not have any further impact on orders.
