You've been patiently waiting, and
now the wait is over. The
Optimus mini three
keypad officially hit today from Art Lebedev Studio. Nothing much here we haven't seen pics of or couldn't already
infer, but we do have dimensions (4.6 x 2.0 x 0.7-inches), a price (it's going to go for $100), and some dates (you'll
be able to pre-order this week to get yours when the first batch rolls out on May 15th). Oh, and you can also orient it
vertically (nice) and play animations up to 5 fps on its 96 x 96 pixel 262k color 0.78 x 0.78 OLED keys. Did we mention
its big brother, the full
Optimus keyboard, also makes a cameo
on the site being listed for sample manufacture by late 2006? Well done.
