What? How Much for that Keyboard?
Tools & Technology, Spending Money | 5,716 ViewsAdmittedly, I am a guy who loves his toys and man, this one really catches my eye. Check this bad boy out!
It is the Optimus Keyboard, every key has its own OLED that can be customized to display just about anything. From game play, Photoshop or just blogging, this keyboard can become your best friend. So everyone is saying, “I want one!”, “Where can I get one”. Come on now, it is Wednesday and we celebrate everything expensive here at My Retirement Project dot com on Wednesdays. You can get your very own Optimus Keyboard for a cool $1500 US!

Most people average 4 careers in their working lives. I have been a Cook, Hotel Clerk, Black Jack Dealer and now I am a web designer.
At 30 I realized that early retirement would be the next logical step. For me to achieve early retirement I will need to earn and save $1 million by July 2012. It is my personal goal to use online revenue streams to achieve my goal to become financially independent and allow me to live my life to the fullest.
Heh. Yeah, I came across this bad boy a few weeks ago, and boy it looks nice.
The problem with it, that any gamer can tell you, is that once you become used to the keyboard layout for a particular game, you no longer look at the keyboard for guidance. So having pretty pictures on the keyboard becomes less important.
Where this could be useful now is for training businesses where a visual indication on the keyboard would make training users a lot easier.
Still pretty cool though. Maybe when it’s $1300 less.
Very true. Still a coll toy! Thanks for visiting!
I want one!! I’m getting a little tired of my Mac keyboard, i could really use one like that!
Slick keyboard, but not worth $1500
Actually, the keys on the keyboard have now changed. Instead of the whole button being a OLED screen, they are just lame little boxes that are the same size no matter what the key size is. Click on the Pre-Order link to see how different they are.
This keyboard is defiantly not worth $1500 now.
I remember reading about this in development about 18 month ago! This is a great idea although for $1500 I’m sure i could find something better to spend my money on!!
