Frenchy2k1 Posted February 1, 2006 Posted February 1, 2006 but what is going to be the price of this gem? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
KaollaSu Posted February 1, 2006 Posted February 1, 2006 I first saw this almost a year ago. You would think they would have it out by now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
red930 Posted February 1, 2006 Posted February 1, 2006 I first saw this almost a year ago. You would think they would have it out by now. It was just an idea a year ago, they had to find somebody that could actually manufacture it in bulk. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
finagle69 Posted February 1, 2006 Posted February 1, 2006 they're selling a 3-key thingy for 100 bucks... hopefully the price/keys ratio changes when the keyboard comes out. i doubt someone would want to pay 3500 bucks for a full keyboard. this was just a proof of concept for the longest time, i'm glad they're actually putting this out on the market. i really love the idea of OLED's displaying what the current key's function is.

ludeboy12 Posted February 2, 2006 Posted February 2, 2006 the mini is cool but im wating till the full keyboard comes out..... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frank Horrigan Posted February 2, 2006 Posted February 2, 2006 If they can pull this off for $200 or less, I'm game. Imagine having to clean that hing, though. That 3-key idea is cool, but entirely unnecessary IMO. But if it was $30 I would get it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

That 3-key idea is cool, but entirely unnecessary IMO. But if it was $30 I would get it. exactly. 100 bucks is a bit steep for 3 buttons, but hey, they've gotta fund the production of the full keyboards somehow right?

ludeboy12 Posted February 2, 2006 Posted February 2, 2006 it should be a decent price....im pretty sure it said it should cost "less than the price of a good mobile phone" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
