Optimus Keyboard Pre-Orders In Mere Hours

Posted by kdawson on from the this-time-for-sure dept.

godzillopiteco sends timely word that Art. Lebedev Studio is finally going to accept pre-orders for the Optimus Maximus Keyboard — in just under 11 hours at the time this story posts, according to the countdown timer on the site. (Late last year we were primed to pre-order in December 2006.) Read the project's blog for some recent developments.

    This thing has sounded, looked, and felt like another Phantom since the start...

    I don't think that's really fair. The Phantom was constantly promoted as "coming soon!" The Optimus OTOH, started life as a conceptual design. Optimus never promised a product from the design, and in fact stated that it would be too expensive with current OLED prices.

    The only reason why they're making this keyboard is because there has been unprecidented demand for it.
