Damn, been waiting for this keyboard to come out for 2 years now.

When it finally does release, it's over $1,500.

I don't see the big deal about this keyboard....? So you can program keys to have certain icons... I just don't get it. My cheap microsoft keyboard allows me to bind f1-f12 and my additional 19 buttons to run any application I want. I can't change the icons for them, but I don't really need to because I don't have problems remember what I've binded each key to... I think if you need icons to remember, you're not using it enough to really make a difference anyhow. How many people actually look down at their keyboards when they type now a days to where you'd actually need the custom icons? Somebody mentioned how great this would be for cs:s; you can set up scripts in cs:s to carry out any set of commands as far as buying helmet, armor, weapon, ammo, etc... I just don't understand the big deal about this keyboard. Please, if I'm missing something, explain... Thanks.

Play with this - http://www.artlebedev.com/everything/optimus/demo/

Hit caps, the Photoshop and Half-Life links, etc.

Not a necessity, but a cool peripheral, indeed.

lol, i give up. I guess it's the same reason I can't understand people wanting neon lights in their computers, flames on their cars or spinning wheels.

To each his own........

I'm about to drop another $300 tomorrow on a tattoo addition. Some think its pissing away my money, I see it as just something I want.

I must agree, totally. The thing is over $1500 also.

For gaming, give me an 8 (or more) button mouse and a Wii-style nunchuka control for movement. I hate using keyboards for anything when gaming.
