I bought the Elecraft HexKey on Monday and it arrived on Wednesday 
[yesterday].  I'm *really* impressed.  Playing around with it some today 
on my K2/100, it has a really great feel, is still set as it came out of 
the box, and I didn't know it came with spell-check but I find that it 
misspells stuff a lot less than my vanilla Benchers do. :-)

There have been a couple of posts about the rubber feet for the HexKey. 
  Mine is rock solid on the desk.  I have one "vanilla" Bencher anchored 
with some double-sided tape because it wanders otherwise [I treat a 
paddle as a bug and tend to slap it around some].  The HexKey stays put. 
  Someone posted that changing the feet made a big difference.  I'm not 
sure how much better it could get for me, but could you tell me the 
problem you encountered ... off-line would be great!
