Looks fab, but I have a feeling the inevitable cup of coffee spillage will lead to certain death!

Okay,

I must be missing something,
or else my link is taking me to the wrong page! :doh

But... it's a keyboard? :doh

A grey keyboard!! :doh

And you're all having orgasms because??????????? :doh

It's fully programmable. You can reprogram the keys to be anything you want. So rather than having a standard QWERTY keyboard your top row of keys could say anything you want.

It means one keyboard can be used all over the world rather than having to have separate ones for UK, France, Germany, Russia, China etc.

The keys are mini displays that indicate what they have been programmed for. So while you have the letters printed on to your plastic keys at present these keys have a mini display so the will display Q if the key is set to Q. Or they can be reprogrammed for Quake and stuff like that as it shows.

It's bloody clever Veg

It will cost less than a good mobile phone.
My guess would be not by much!

I'll stick to me trusty white one thanks! :D

Hold on :pg

Initial stages of production? :doh
Due in 2006? :doh

Wonder if they have the patent yet :D

I only like keyboards with a mouse wheel on the left, very handy.
