Optimus Maximus?s customizable layout allows convenient use of any language?Cyrillic, Ancient Greek, Georgian, Arabic, Quenya, hiragana, etc.?as well as of any other character sets: notes, numerals, special symbols, HTML codes, math functions and so on to infinity.

 

Any key (or to be exact, a unit consisting of a cap, a microchip and a display) can be easily removed by hands to be cleaned or replaced

 

 

The keyboard uses cherry keys.

 

Before you say it, by 2008 Christmas this might be facing rivals.

Pah, gimmicks frippery with added smoke and mirrors. :thumbsup:

 

What you really need is one of these. Bomb-proof, as about as attractive as a multiple vehicle accident and even useful for home defence - you whack someone around the head with one of these and my money is on the keyboard coming out better. - what more could a man ask for?

Custard has one, though I am not sure he will thank me for mentioning it. :clapping:

 

On a serious note the OLED ones are absolutely brilliant, but at that price I will stick with my 1940's outlook.

G15 doesn't have more colors in the keys, must be the new G15 replacement which is called???

I have a G19 as a replacement of my drowned G15 and it works like a charm, now only for a better G19 teamspeak gadget, or simultanous videoplay (play games and wats pron at teh same time...lol)

But hey I'd leave that till after the lan, won't like to see the mess.....lol

Any of you guys fancy a trip to Holland, there are still 4-5 slots avaliable, with us..... games to play? ARMA II, COD4, Ghost Recon, GRAW 1 and 2 and maybe some racing....

I game using a G15, the 1980's brick floats around in the footwell of my van it is used only for plugging into my equipment onsite :finger:

 

My fave is the same one Cobol likes the laser jobby :allgood:
