yes it does. when it comes out i might get that instead of the G15

 

[jancz3rt]

hmm

Just wanted to warn you that because it has OLED screens under each button, it will be really expensive and probably not worth getting fue to just that.

Since we are here. I havent seen an estimated price for the keyboard. Can somebody give just an idea of how much it might cost.

probably $100-120 somewhere around there.

I'd say about $200 if not more. I've heard that the lights of the OLEDs start to dim after 5000 hours of use which sucks since it'll be harder to tell what you're pressing.

They will have to have some sort of replacement plan. If the OLED's dont work then you cant use the keyboard.

wow that looks like a really good keyboard but id still rather get a G15 =p

I'd say way more, in the 300-400$. Check out the new 3 key keyboard, it costs 100$, and this is if you order now, it will be more expensive later... For THREE KEYS!!

"It will cost less than a good mobile phone."
"Moscow is the capital of Russia."

How much do you recon a good mobile phone costs? AND this is just an estimate...
