I’m interested in the F77 with Ultra compact case. I would prefer a black case but the problem is that, taking a look at the very few photos available, it seems that the keycaps are the same color as the old-fashoned keyboards. That kind of light beige color goes well with old computer and old keyboard cases, but not much with a modern black case. Will they be available in a more neutral gray or white color? Also, will all keycaps be available in any of the two colors (usually darker for the modifiers and bright for the alphas)?

Great! Yes you can order all black unprinted keys. Unicomp also sells white key sets if you prefer them.

I’m typing on an ultra compact F77 with pearl/pebble keys and it looks nice.

Unicomp also sells grey keys, they are a much better match with black than pearl/pebble in my opinion, you should consider to deliver grey keys too.

I had great success dying Unicomp keycaps. (There are numerous guides out there — how to use fabric dye.) I am typing now on orange Unicomp keycaps that were originally pearl. I plan on buying another set of white and dying those for the new Model F77.
