Optimus Mini-Three - $100 - April 2nd

[WhiteZero]

Just got this from the Optimus mailing list (offical):

Ladies and gentlemen,

A while ago you signed up for newsletters about the Optimus keyboard. I'm
delighted to inform you that we are rolling out the Optimus mini three
keyboard.

Details with images are available at http://www.artlebedev.com/portfolio/optimus-mini/.

It's a three-key keyboard with big color OLED screens. The price of the
keyboard is $100 until April 2, 2006. We are looking forward to receiving a
fresh lot of the keyboards ready for shipment on May 15. We are planning to
give you the opportunity to pre-order the keyboard at our online store this
week.


P. S. As regards the full-fledged Optimus keyboard, we still expect to
obtain its samples by the end of this year. Production is slated for next
year. But before that, we are planning to make another model, of which you
will be immediately notified.

hmmmm Seems kinda like a novelty to me.It still cant replace an actual keyboard,not worth 100$ to me I guess the photoshop tool thing could be usefull for skinning...either way my g15 can do everything that thing does,I just gotta get better at c++

$100 for 3 keys... How much will the full keyboard cost :|
I guess the prices for the technology will drop soon enough, but it will still be a very expensive keyboard... I'll wait a few decades
