Flexiglow Illuminated Keyboard

Posted by timothy on from the you-thought-fake-barf-was-novel dept.

BigMan writes "You probably have seen a few of these keyboards (illuminated) before but this one is from Flexiglow who are known for making very nice modd products. We will look closer into this and see how bright it really is and if it's nice to type on and use."

      Yeah, I bet that would be hard to use in the dark because it's so bright.

      At least I can get an all-over "CRT tan" now; this will get to those hard to reach spots under the chin.

    The "1" "2" "3" and "4" keys were not illuminated at the time this was written, due to a "malfunction".

    My keyboard glows in a weird spotty pattern under an ultraviolet light.

    I showed my friend, and for some reason he refuses to type on it now. Actually, he refuses to touch anything in my room. Or shake my hand.

    Its not about usability, its about getting an all round tan. My three monitor setup works well but I've been looking a little pale under the chin. This is just what I've been looking for.

    Wouldn't it be cool if a few well known keys just had some kind of mark on them you could just feel for. That way you wouldn't have to see the keyboard to know which keys your fingers were over.

    Quick, Microsoft patent this!

    ... as opposed to a flashlight where I have to hold it in my teeth like a metal dildo...

    Where I come from a) flashlights don't vibrate b) dildos don't go in the mouth.

    Sorry, couldn't resist replying to a post like that ;-)
