I know nothing of mechanical keyboards, but I have always found cool the Corne ish Zen[1]. However, I don’t work alone so I would like something as silent as possible. I have an old Macally keyboard[2] that I know is silent enough. Is it possible to find a keyboard like the Corne but silent as a regular BT keyboard? Would you recommend one, or it is not actually possible?

    I’m not too familiar with the subject anymore. This artictle is a pretty good post about it that points to some good quiet switches. I personally enjoy some NovelKey Creams and find them to be smooth and not too loud. I would go with what ken said and maybe try to mod something. You could buy an extra pack of the switches to play with if its possible but they are easy to open and reassemble with a switch opener tool.
