Watch a film on your keyboard ?

Well not quite but how cool is this anyway !!!

Out in 2006, I reckon these will be standard on PC's / Mac's by 2010 !

That is so cool

I was wondering (not much though) how long it would take for them to make changable keys, excellent for music or video production programs, and games.

Ya think thats good .... check this baby out!

Keyboard that is drawn onto the surface in front of u using a laser!

Every time i think i have all the gadgets, someone introduces me to another way to throw money up the wall!

The laser keyboard has a LOT of potential but the optimus one seems a lot more feesable for the forseable future.

I just don't think I could use a keyboard that had no 'feel' to it.

Really looking forward to getting one of those Optimus ones, hopefully they will be in manufacture soon

totally agree, I do a lot of typing at work and there's no way I could use a keyboard without any tactile feedback.

Read some interview with the designer. He said that they were seriously looking into possibilities of production. But you can expect to pay premium price.
Said something like $200 is very optimistic and $300 is optimistic.

Did you read the FAQ about the keyboard?

Did you see this answer?

"Moscow is the capital of Russia."
"There’s no snow in Moscow in summer."
