Heads up, you will get more "old" posts in this thread then intelligent comments.

1,600 is overkill, even for a keyboard of any magnitude. It seems extravagant for the physical product anyway. I don't know a lot about the OLED market, but I know they're in many devices like cell phones and mp3 players, so they certainly have a reasonable price. However, for a total screen area smaller then near any monitor (and average sized oled screens have been made) 1,600 is facking ridiculous.

I would imagine that the money is running like 80 different displays...But yeah, too much.

Cool though.

Wow. Amazing.

But I'm comfortable with just having the alphabet plus a couple of extras.

That'd probably be handy if you were typing in Chinese characters.

I've wanted one for ages. A lot of money though. Can you even get them in Europe? Making your own is much cheaper.

That costs 1,600 USD, Amazon is selling the G15 for 150 USD.

Maybe we're better off with the G15.

rofl, if you buy the G15 for 150$ you're either retarded or don't like money.

Agreed, it costs $130 here and everything in Iceland is overpriced to hell.

The article isn't old, but the keyboards been known about for a while.

Anyways, I think the Optimus Tactus is a pretty interesting design. Although it would be annoying to use without physical keys, and I can't think of many situations I'd need to watch a movie on my keyboard when I have a 20" screen infront of me.
