And on that site it said they'd retail at 150... I don't think I'd ever spend that much on a keyboard.

good idea, bad design. The key board is too small in size imo. Then there is the problem of typing on a hard surface that doesnt move when your fingers hit it. That will get painful real quick.

neat idea. But now you have to look at your fingers when you type. Nothing can replace a good feel keyboard.

I agree.

I like my keyboard at a tilt, I don't think it'd be comfortable typing on just a desk. Plus you'd look retarded if someone walked in on you and you were tapping your desk.
