Good news everyone!
From the new FAQ on the Optimus keyboard homepage:
It’s in initial stage of production
We hope it will be released in 2006
It will cost less than a good mobile phone
It will be real
It will be OS-independent (at least it can work in some default state with any OS)
It will support any language or layout
Each key could be programmed to produce any sequence
It will be an open-source keyboard, SDK will be available
Some day it will be split (‘ergonomic’)
It will most likely use OLED technology (e-paper is sooo slow)
It will feature a key-saver
Keys will use animation when needed
I snipped out some uninteresting stuff (see their page if you still want to read them).
The most important thing is that it will get real! Weehoo! I have to save money to buy it in 2006 😉
The open source thing is also veeery nice 😉 The other things too. 😉
I am already looking forward to that shiny lightning keyboard!!!
GNAAA!! I’m SO wanking right now …
