And I want this keyboard minus the rainbow lights. And only if the keys are weighted.]]>Aug 6th 2008 9:34AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/08/06/luxeeds-dynamic-pixel-led-keyboard-fills-a-void-for-under-two-b/http://www.engadget.com/2008/08/06/luxeeds-dynamic-pixel-led-keyboard-fills-a-void-for-under-two-b/
I can see so many cool things you can do with this.

Marquee display (I wish the spacebar was divided into key-sized pixels, but even a 4px high font can be designed for good readability in a single-case system. Experiment with anti-aliasing and sub-pixel scroll intervals.)
Spectrum analyzer (with frequency bands matched to winamp equalizer bindings)
Weapon signification in FPSes (most of the keyboard shifts color to match current selected weapon, with the weapon-selection keys keeping the color of the weapon, if it exists, and blacked-out otherwise. Health status, also...)
Syncronous display with screensavers. Think of flurry and GLblur; maybe even sonar.]]>Aug 6th 2008 5:13PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/08/06/luxeeds-dynamic-pixel-led-keyboard-fills-a-void-for-under-two-b/http://www.engadget.com/2008/08/06/luxeeds-dynamic-pixel-led-keyboard-fills-a-void-for-under-two-b/Aug 6th 2008 9:47AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/08/06/luxeeds-dynamic-pixel-led-keyboard-fills-a-void-for-under-two-b/http://www.engadget.com/2008/08/06/luxeeds-dynamic-pixel-led-keyboard-fills-a-void-for-under-two-b/Aug 6th 2008 9:56AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/08/06/luxeeds-dynamic-pixel-led-keyboard-fills-a-void-for-under-two-b/http://www.engadget.com/2008/08/06/luxeeds-dynamic-pixel-led-keyboard-fills-a-void-for-under-two-b/Aug 6th 2008 9:57AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/08/06/luxeeds-dynamic-pixel-led-keyboard-fills-a-void-for-under-two-b/http://www.engadget.com/2008/08/06/luxeeds-dynamic-pixel-led-keyboard-fills-a-void-for-under-two-b/Your misspelling of shortsightedness is shocking. And your comment was basically pointless. Did you really need to get your undies in a bundle over a joke?]]>Aug 6th 2008 10:40AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/08/06/luxeeds-dynamic-pixel-led-keyboard-fills-a-void-for-under-two-b/http://www.engadget.com/2008/08/06/luxeeds-dynamic-pixel-led-keyboard-fills-a-void-for-under-two-b/
Your response incited by his response, indicating the misspelling, is shocking. He stated a valid point as anti-homosexuality is a bigger issue than what may have been a simple joke!]]>Aug 26th 2008 10:55PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/08/06/luxeeds-dynamic-pixel-led-keyboard-fills-a-void-for-under-two-b/http://www.engadget.com/2008/08/06/luxeeds-dynamic-pixel-led-keyboard-fills-a-void-for-under-two-b/
Call me crazy, but I like this keyboard better than the Optimus Maxiumus... and I like the price a lot better too.]]>Aug 6th 2008 9:55AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/08/06/luxeeds-dynamic-pixel-led-keyboard-fills-a-void-for-under-two-b/http://www.engadget.com/2008/08/06/luxeeds-dynamic-pixel-led-keyboard-fills-a-void-for-under-two-b/Aug 6th 2008 12:44PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/08/06/luxeeds-dynamic-pixel-led-keyboard-fills-a-void-for-under-two-b/http://www.engadget.com/2008/08/06/luxeeds-dynamic-pixel-led-keyboard-fills-a-void-for-under-two-b/

why is the Del key fucked up Logitech style?! I want my Insert back. And what about the annoying crop of tiny buttons around the arrow keys, no no no no. And it looked so damn good at first sight...]]>Aug 6th 2008 10:10AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/08/06/luxeeds-dynamic-pixel-led-keyboard-fills-a-void-for-under-two-b/http://www.engadget.com/2008/08/06/luxeeds-dynamic-pixel-led-keyboard-fills-a-void-for-under-two-b/
Specialized keyboards with color coded keys have been out for a number of years but being able to change them dynamically depending on the application would be very helpful.

Funky lightshows when listening to music, and very useful for specific apps e.g. Sibelius, SONAR etc by creating colour profiles.

Compared to the Optimus, its a bargain, and if you're stupid enough to put a beverage within 1 metre of an expensive keyboard, you deserve to be beaten half to death with it before having it forcefully inserted up your anal canal.]]>Aug 6th 2008 2:16PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/08/06/luxeeds-dynamic-pixel-led-keyboard-fills-a-void-for-under-two-b/http://www.engadget.com/2008/08/06/luxeeds-dynamic-pixel-led-keyboard-fills-a-void-for-under-two-b/Aug 6th 2008 5:00PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/08/06/luxeeds-dynamic-pixel-led-keyboard-fills-a-void-for-under-two-b/http://www.engadget.com/2008/08/06/luxeeds-dynamic-pixel-led-keyboard-fills-a-void-for-under-two-b/Aug 6th 2008 9:41PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/08/06/luxeeds-dynamic-pixel-led-keyboard-fills-a-void-for-under-two-b/http://www.engadget.com/2008/08/06/luxeeds-dynamic-pixel-led-keyboard-fills-a-void-for-under-two-b/Aug 6th 2008 3:18PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/08/06/luxeeds-dynamic-pixel-led-keyboard-fills-a-void-for-under-two-b/http://www.engadget.com/2008/08/06/luxeeds-dynamic-pixel-led-keyboard-fills-a-void-for-under-two-b/Aug 6th 2008 6:05PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/08/06/luxeeds-dynamic-pixel-led-keyboard-fills-a-void-for-under-two-b/http://www.engadget.com/2008/08/06/luxeeds-dynamic-pixel-led-keyboard-fills-a-void-for-under-two-b/Aug 6th 2008 4:48PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/08/06/luxeeds-dynamic-pixel-led-keyboard-fills-a-void-for-under-two-b/http://www.engadget.com/2008/08/06/luxeeds-dynamic-pixel-led-keyboard-fills-a-void-for-under-two-b/Aug 7th 2008 4:00AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/08/06/luxeeds-dynamic-pixel-led-keyboard-fills-a-void-for-under-two-b/http://www.engadget.com/2008/08/06/luxeeds-dynamic-pixel-led-keyboard-fills-a-void-for-under-two-b/Aug 6th 2008 7:34PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/08/06/luxeeds-dynamic-pixel-led-keyboard-fills-a-void-for-under-two-b/http://www.engadget.com/2008/08/06/luxeeds-dynamic-pixel-led-keyboard-fills-a-void-for-under-two-b/Aug 6th 2008 10:09PM
