One question though: How much? :p

[rashal]

Looks brilliant! The text wont give you more info than the pictures do by the way.

Another question: How fast will it break?

[rcillig]

[RedDragonXXX]

pls tell me you know where to get it!!!!!!!!!

NewEgg has them on sale!

Just kidding:clap:

[phungilax]

That just amazing engineering and design. Patents pending - hopefully it hits the market soon.

[shellshock]

Ya, thats a pretty sweet keyboard

[Radical]

I hope all keyboards are like that someday.

[darksparkz]

Great design, wonder how much it'll cost. My guess is from $100-150, plus I think it'll need it's own power outlet, the USB connection might take up a bit too many watts. Looks great for dark rooms, it looks like a light-up LED. The whole langauge/game change interface is a great idea, set your own hotkeys and etc. Wonder if it's overclockable...lol

[Nexus Realized]

Great looking keyboard

It looks more like fiber optics than lcd to me

[Scott9027]

It looks cool, but it also looks more like a concept than a production item. I hope it's closer to being a retail item than I think. The mouse doesn't look all that impressive. If anything it has much less functionality than current mice. I'm not sure I understand why the keyboard is so advanced, and the mouse is so crippled. I guess we have to wait and see how these turn out, but my interest is piqued!

[furiousfords89]

blah, ill get it when my ancient bulletproof keyboard breaks ( i got it last year from my school, it was prolly abused to hell for like 3 years during its service time and its still workin like its brand new ) :rolleyes:
lol sry to get off topic

[invisible hand]

I want one right now!

damn right!!!.... :thup:

[Kevin007]

I want one, that is cool.

[LeEbZ0r]

Dang guys. Those two keyboards are amazing. I thought my logitech wireless was pretty amazing since it had no wires (yes Im an outdated kid lol) but these two just blow me away. When is that one with the lcd images coming out?

[ajrettke]

Another sweet thing about that is you can experiment with different key sets.
The QWERTY layout, although more effecient than having everything in row (i.e. a b c d instead of qwerty) is still not the most efficient design/layout.

[SolidxSnake]

Change that Optimus keyboard to a DVORAK layout...

WOO

[werdz]

Nice good looking keyboard, but I wonder how much its going to cost!!

[sunrunner20]

:drool: :drool: :drool:
Man, I had that Idea a few days ago but I know i'd never get it made... I want one.... so long as its REASONABLY prices.... <$200 will be good and it lasts(~5 year warrantee)

Crazy looking mouse
but where are my 10 buttons that I must utilize at all times?

[Vulcan]

wow. If I had to guess I'd say it would use oled displays. I wish this actualy exsisted.

But, if it did it woudl costl like 1000.00 :(

damn.. i was in Kiev last summer. wish i would of known I WOULD OF STOPPED BY! :p

[FunkDaMonkMan]

WOW. I'm sure this will cost ~$500 at release.

[Vulcan]

woot. I was right about it using OLED displays. The concept is thus: every key features an inbuilt colour OLED.

[Amarkarian]

If anyone finds out about the price and where to buy ill buy it for 300, it is insane.

[ajrettke]

How many users do we have here from other countries or use other languages that would find this incredibly usefull for changing keysets? I'm just kind of curious because I just think it's normal to have english language mapped on the keyset..
