Actually... that is pretty cool.
But the price, oh the price.

That'd be indeed an awesome keyboard.

If only it didn't have such a price...

We're not as rich as you to spend that kind of money on a keyboard 0_0, you know bills, insurances, registrations for vehicles are real.

Still, it's a cool keyboard to say the very least.

Well, I doubt I'd really need to change what each key is asigned for. And it's rather ugly, only white and black. Not to mention the...lol...price.

And these constant shortcuts. For example if you asigned one key for 50% Opacity in Photoshop.... although they may ease and shorten your job, simultaneously such things make people lazier, and IMO too accustomed to such shortcuts.

For that money I can buy a completely new PC. In other words: no thank you #Tongue

It is both win and fail. Best analogy I can think of is a King Tiger Tank. Sure it was the ultimate tank, but for that price you could've got an entire armoured platoon...

So basically I'm with dutchy. Can I have an ultra-new PC instead?

Agreed with the above comments, it's very cool, but man, is it expensive. Also, there are some fuzzy reviews flying around saying it's not that awesome after all. I've seen this thing before, in fact I was searching for an LED display keyboard when I stumbled across it, but this isn't exactly what I'd hoped for...

I would just give it like 10 years so the price will go down then buy.

I was looking for that keyboard a few months ago. At least I know what it's called now. May purchase one at a later date for my next PC.

I remember first hearing about this years ago before it came out and was keeping an eye on it...... until it was released and was finally given a price


1667€

*does a quick online conversion*

£1,374.93

LOL! for a keyboard... I didnt even pay that much for my entire PC (excl monitor)

that's $2400 for the US forum users

I'll stick with my £40 logitech keyboard and with the advantages of being able to drop heavy objects or knock cups of tea on it and be assured it will still work just fine Very Happy

This man speaks the truth.

What good is a keyboard if its shot because you accidentally spilled a can of coke on it? Waste of money unless you live in glass house.

Yeah, I once spilled mixed fruit juice on my keyboard but it didn't even break. Only some of the keys got jammed because of the suggar #Tongue Had to wash the plastic parts and it worked fine again.

I don't think it will fit on my desk. Does this thing come with anything cool like Coffee Dispenser, or Tactical Missile Launcher, to justify the price?

For its price, I can probably agree, but the concept is amazing.

Concepts in commercial design have a way of being refined over the years, as long as it brings in money. #Tongue

That's really cool, I really like the idea but it costs A LOT.

This, and the fact that I'd settle for something less but has more useful value.

In my very opinion, that beats the G15 and any Razer keyboard right now. The Company is cash as well, just have shitty marketing.
