Such as dedicated macro keys or USB pass-through ports
More expensive than comparable Alloy models
Still no media keys or pack-in wrist rest
PBT upgrade is labor intensive
Clunky software
No media bar
Limited customization
No dedicated media controls or macro keys

No USB pass-through ports
A little expensive

Occasionally tripping over keys while regular typing
No dedicated macro buttons
Costs $25 extra for more luminescent keycaps
None that I found
