$1,564.37 Computer Keyboard

Basically every button has an OLED screen on it, so the buttons you can change to anything. Kinda like putting icons on the buttons, instead of your desktop, mind you, you can change ANY key, but for 1,500 it should type for me.

Here's a demo

Kinda cool when you hold shift, or numlock.

you mean i could switch from regular to dvorak setups instantly? i'm in!


in actuality though it's a cool thing. practicality is non-existant for the price but it's def cool

I haven't seen a dvorak keyboard in years.

OLEDs are still relatively new tech (AFAIK) so I can see why it's so cost-prohibitive.
The only thing I find bad on it is the un-justified look of the main key area. All the letter keys appear to be arranged proplerly, but seeing the Caps & shift rows unevenly skewed at the edges ruins the look.
...exceptionally high on the coolness scale, but I'll continue to use my backlit Saitek Eclipse keyboard.

I want to make each key a channel of the TV and use it as a TV remote control lol

I have a friend who claims to have preordered one of these. I think he's crazy. When he's sick of it, I'm going to offer him $100 for it.

 

[jred321]

$100 is way too much for a keyboard

Can you make all key to show the same pic together when you are not using it? Like a wallpaper on a keyboard.

anything you want, according to the description

Welcome to 2005. I'm sorry, I'm all about fancy peripherals, but that thing is just retarded.

1-Cost - You can get a nice new PC for that money.
2-OLED life span - the displays will rapidly begin to burn out after about a year's use.
3-It's not ergonomic. At all. I mean, the keys aren't even concaved to fit your fingertips like every other keyboard on the planet.
4-A good typist doesn't look at the keyboard. So that makes this a giant waste of money.
5-WTF @ those function keys? Groups of two???
6-That backslash key blows. I'll take my full sized backslash key, thnx.

but for 1,500 it should type for me.

For $1,500 it should turn into a cock pump, make it 2" longer, and clean itself up when your finished.

WTF would you be thinking....Maybe if you are a multi-language typer or possible shortcuts for typing code??? Beats me...
