I'm not trying to be mean, but really, it does. Check out the Fairlight Xynergi keyboard, which can be your baby for a cool $28k. It features "Self Labeling Illuminated Computer Keyswitch Technology," which is basically the fancy way of telling you that you can relabel the keys according to the use you need them for. Obviously this is a product aimed at media professionals (correction: filthy rich media professionals), but I had to show it to you just for the sake of novelty. All I can say is, I would expect this freaking robot to have breakfast ready and fully manage all my email before I even came out of REM sleep.

It also had the keys that changed depending on the application.
Anyone?
wtf
Unless I get some Shadowrun-esque keyboard that can let me run around in the virtual world, and have nanotechnology that regenerates the keys when I get pissed off and smash it... I think I'll stick with the $30 keyboard.
also, i think that $28k price includes some sort of software suite for the media professional as well.
that keyboard kicks some major ass.
I am satisfied with my current keyboard. Thank you.

Already ahead of you on that idea, as I'm now using Dvorak instead of shitty QWERTY as my primary keyboard layout, and it really does feel more efficient. I rearranged the keys on one of my keyboards to help me learn when I started, but I've memorized the entire layout, so I don't need to look for keys now. It's more confusing to other people if I use Dvorak on a keyboard with QWERTY labels anyways, and thats how I prefer it.
Personally, I want a KeyMatrix keyboard more than either the Optimus or this insane control board, but I can't even afford it's $110 price right now. Native Dvorak and better design FTW!
