If it was ergonomic I'd like one.

Is this for real? If so, are the keys OLED?

Whoever designed this needs to patent it quick or I will.

In keyboard Optimus each key is separate display, reflecting precisely that how it governs at the given moment.

Release date: 14.07.2005 In the main roles: art- director and the developer of interface Artemiy Lebedev prikladyvatel' of hands Timur burbayev modeller Aleksey zalat the visualizer Nikolai vershinin Technical Designer Anna ponomareva (From this paragraph, I gather that it's merely a concept and will never be real. )

The almost square key for the transfer of carriage (Enter) is represented in the separately large size

The additional the unit of keys is to the left intended for the switching between the programs or the regimes Optimus simultaneously is suitable for any keyboard apportionments - kirillicheskoy, Ancient Greek, Georgian, Arab and further to infinity: note, number, special-symbols, HTML- codes, matfunktsii. (Wow, that's awesome... No more typing < / > just press (HTML BUTTON) and the keys display codes, then press (ENGLISH BUTTON) and you're in business. Awesome.

Patents are expected. (Radical.)

It appears the US site hasn't been updated yet. That company creates designs for other companies so we may actually see this from someone like HP.

Aren't microwave ovens ugly? Why can't the controls be on the door?

This is 2005, isn't it?

Appliance + stainless steel + chrome accents = sexy

How about just a glass (or plastic) tinted door with an OLED overlay display over the entire door that shows not only the controls, but a video signal tied into a database of recipe videos and/or the Food Channel?

About the keyboard: Get rid of Function keys already. Make alt-1 = F1. Out with the old.

Also, in America something like 70% (made up figure) of the people don't understand that in math * is the same thing as "x" for multiplication. Something needs to be done about that.

Perhaps the keypad Enter should just say "=" as well.

This keyboard is awesome, but the layout of keys definitely could use some work. The language key right next to escape smells like trouble. Function keys are stupid (Not just the keys, but where they are located is superfluous in the flow of modern computing). Directional arrow keys could be axed, and we can have a lengthy debate on backspace vs. delete.

Edit: I wonder if the keyboard can do DVORAK?

Edit:

Combining two of the world’s toughest elements that combust in heat in relatively the same manner results in a combination that is virtually impossible to break. Very similar to the mindset of a soldier!

Two years ago in central Finland a band called Teräsbetoni was formed by a group of four musicians. The band gets its inspiration from heavy metal and sings about issues that have formerly only been touched by a few. It’s now time to unite the Nordic soldiers and sing about battles in the Finnish language. This is not an easy road to follow… but the challenge has been accepted without fear.

“The call of metal may be too hard to handle for some, but not for those that are guided by the warrior instinct”, are the words from the first single called “Taivas lyö tulta” that has held the top position in the domestic single charts in Finland for three weeks in a row. The road is long, but the games have begun.
