Re: Gadget Porn

Wow, now that's pretty.

BTW Luw, are there keyboards with backlit keys so that you can see them better at night? Something a little more affordable than the one above...

Re: Gadget Porn

i will buy this if it will also make me sandwiches and dry clean my clothes...

unless you don't care about money, is it ever possible to justify spending so much on keyboard?

btw, art lebdev (the creator of this keyboard) has some great stuff on his site in case you guys haven't had a chance to look at it yet: Art. Lebedev Studio

edit: the actual price is $1564.37 usd

Re: Gadget Porn

Yeah, saw that one. I think it said the price per key/button on keyboard is something like 15$...

Re: Gadget Porn

I don't really understand why this thing costs so much!

I suppose people will buy it, if money's no object!

Re: Gadget Porn

OK, and why would you want that?

I can see only one use, if you speak different languages, and want to switch the keyboard between them!

Lets rephrase the question. Why would you not want it?

Beside making your friends drool the keyboard does have a very useful purpose. The whole idea of the keyboard is for it to change with which ever software you're using. If you're playing a game the letters will change into symbols representing different features or actions in the game. If you're using photoshop some of the symbols might turn into paint brushes, line draw etc.


Mirrage: Is it backlit? Hell yeah


If you ask me, I wouldn't mind receiving one this christmas

Hadn't thought of that, in games it would be rather useful!
