I have two identical Leopold tenkeyless with Cherry MX Browns; one for home and one for work. Feels like blue switches, but with much less clicky-clicky. As for the layout, it's compact without being squished like laptop keyboards, *shudder*. Arrow keys and the other navigation keys get their own space without being in the way.
I'm a huge fan of the 80% or 100% boards as well, but my V60 is pretty nifty as well. It just takes a lot more getting used to having everything important on a second layer. Also, about the browns: is the tactile bump slightly squishy compare to a blue? I feel like even without the distinct click, blues have a much more sharp bump, but browns feel slightly less pronounced in their bump.
I haven't used blues long enough to answer that question, but I would definitely say that the bump is not terribly pronounced. I have been away from my mechanical keyboard for about two months now (moving and no work) and I know when I get back to it I'll be bottoming out the keys every time. But it's enough so that once you get used to it you can use it properly and comfortably, which is the whole point. The thing about the smaller boards is that they just feel more cramped, even if you actually have the same size keys—but that's obviously just personal preference.
