Info

It’s in the 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’s going to be able to work in some default state with any OS).

It will support any language or layout.

Moscow is the capital of Russia.

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 (and made “ergonomic”).

It will most likely use the OLED technology (e-paper is sooo slow).

Our studio is located two blocks from the Kremlin.

It will feature a key-saver.

Keys could be animated when needed.

It has a numeric keypad because we love it.

There’s no snow in Moscow in summer.

It will be available worldwide (why not?)

OEM is possible (why not?)


Sorry if old, but more people need to see this thing.

That thing is pointless.

After I memorize my control scheme I don't even look at the keyboard at all. Waste of money.
 
I think it'd be useful for new games...especially for people who play flight sims and stuff...

Also, to switch from QWERTY to DVORAK would be trivial...

There are so many NEW possibilties, I think it's an excellent idea. Hey, I also sometimes use my keyboard when making music (rather than my MIDI keyboard) and while I know the notes on this type of keyboard, it doesn't hurt to have them on here too.

Plus, you can watch movies on the Enter key in widescreen format!

Hey, thought of another thing...multi language support. When you change the language in windows, it can change there too! Imagine Hebrew, or Arabic characters on there with a press of a button. Have you ever tried typing with the Canadian French option? It's hard to figure out which keys are what...well with this it would be easy!

It's one of those things that I think many people won't be able to live without. Especially if they speak multiple languages, or play a lot of games.

I also think if they light up after you press them would be a cool feature. Especially if they faded away after you pressed it. A fast typer could have the whole thing glowing.
 
COCKLES is my new King.


Also, that thing isn't just old, it is teh fake. Well, concept is better word than fake.
 
Why are people so amazed by this stupid keyboard? Bunch of fucking suckers.

EDIT: No, I can type perfectly fine in proper French on my regular keyboard, it's not hard at all. Though some of your other ideas sound all right (esp. for learning DVORAK), but regardless this keyboard is still for suckers.

EDIT 2: I already read your post ;)
