An LCD in every key?

Cpl Rampage · 14-July-05, 10:15 PM

found this on toms, an new keyboard that has a small LCD in every key. You can program the keys to certain aplications and games, and have a special group of keys for launching programs.

it kinda remindes me of the z-board or what ever they are. i was thinking wouldnt it be cool to have it display a picture across all of the keys, like a little mosaic when idle.

Don't worry, the forum search dosn't work for me too well either. I've been having luck with the Active Topics tab lately

Any chance you mispelled the words in bold during your search as well?
Not knocking your spelling, just saying that may be the reason for no hits, plus 3 letter words (unless GK has fixed this problem) are too short to yield results.

even tho i JUST bought a Siatek gaming KB, if this was on the market today i would still buy this.
this thing looks pretty sweet!

i imagine it is going to cost a pretty penny tho. i wouldnt be surprised to see a tag above $200

I think you posted it in the Premium Pimp Lounge, which is why Cpl Rampage didn't see it.

I almost posted it around 4pm yesterday, but I DID see your thread. Figured I'd give the Premium Pimps awhile to look at it first, then post it for everyone (but Sleepy_Sentry beat me to it).

FunkyFresh · 15-July-05, 03:47 PM

They keep saying OLED's (like this uses) are going to be cheap to manufacture, whenever they actually get around to mass-producing them. So who knows, this might not be THAT expensive... But even if it's not expensive to make, they'd probably jack up the prices anyway since there's nothing else like it.

Sleepy_Sentry · 15-July-05, 09:08 PM

Nice to know I beat you guys lol

.

It would be cool if PR could get one of these to review.

How much do you think it will cost? $40?$60?$100?

Dimazz · 16-July-05, 12:42 AM

It says on the site - "as much as a good mobile phone" so I would assume around 150-200 dollars?

But it does look really really cool! I would/will mosdef get one.
