Optimus LCD Keyboard: any ideas?

I've been looking for the Optimus LCD keyboard for a while. I'd love to get my hands on one. Can't seem to find them anywhere though. Are they actually released yet?

If so - Where oh where do i get my hands on one?

Afaik only the black and white one is availabe. The colour one won't be available til the end of this year, and it's extremely expensive, like 800 quid.

Day-um! that's pricey!
Oh well, back to sticking stickers on my keyboard for now then!

The three key mini-OLED thing is like 90 quid : / So christ knows how much the big one will actually be.

Just keep an eye on the site, will give you updates etc.

It seems the moderating has got a little stricter since the mods were inaugerated.

I've seen posts deleted or threads locked/deleted where there were hints or even asking for hints of competitors.

Well it does have over 100 colour displays !!!!
Nobody expected it to be cheap

I'd seen $1200 == £600 at current rates

Yeah just found the Wikipedia link.

lol seems ridiculous now when people were saying it was going to be around £200. Oh well!

Thing is this technology is literally the first generation, I hope that the second or third model by around 2009/2010 will be in the £200 range then, certainly get my money if only for the novelty value.

At the price of a decent car its pushing it.
