I was a beta tester of the Advantage 2 and the problem is completely gone with the new firmware.

  What is different with the Advantage 2? (I did take a look at the website and I'm wondering about your personal experience -- what makes a difference in daily use?)

    The biggest difference was never having the shift or modifier keys get stuck on. The mechanical f keys were really nice as well, though being that I'm already a advantage user my standard layout has the ones I use regularly (especially esc) mapped elsewhere. Programming new key combinations and being able to use the .txt files made remapping a bit easier. It also made it easier to see what I had done in case a mapping didn't look right. If you do a lot of remapping with multiple layouts or macros the new one is a must. If the occasional modifier's getting stuck really bothers you, or you are a heavy user of the f keys and can't remap for whatever reason you will benefit from the advantage 2. If, on the other hand, you only do a small amount of remapping and have already mapped away f-keys that are used a lot AND the modifier freezing is not a big deal for you it might not be worth it to upgrade to the new model until your current one bites the dust. If you are looking at getting an Advantage for the first time I would buy this one instead of the previous model.

      Thank you. I have the old one and am not experiencing stuck modifiers so I'll hold off.
