Optimus OLED Keyboard Pre-Orders Start Dec. 12

Jupix writes, "After almost a year and a half of public development, the Optimus OLED keyboard is nearing completion. According to the project blog, pre-orders for the Optimus-103 will start on December 12. The price is unspecified at this time, but Art Lebedev has said the keyboard will cost 'less than a good mobile phone' (probably about $400). Don't expect to see those 10 programmable function keys on the left on this first version, though, as they will not make their debut until the Optimus-113, released later."

dozens of lines?

Programmers need to type in dozens of lines of code to express a single idea sometimes

Yes, that happened to me once, when I really needed to use VBA instead of Perl...

Hmm, that gives me an idea for a special Perl keyboard, with all the punctuation marks present on the home row, and the letters relegated to the keypad and other 'peripheral' locations.... ;^)

Reminds me of an old joke...
