Renowned keyboard Optimus Maximus from Russian design studio Art Lebedev is finally starting to materialize, after a close to eternal wait. Wired Store in New York has the high-tech keyboard on public display and over at Engadget they’ve published a short preview of Optimus Maximus after getting a few minutes with the keyboard. They report that the long wait was actually worth it as Art Lebedev has managed to build a quality product, and that includes the OLED displays in the keys. At Engadget there are a couple of pictures of the longed-for keyboard and some further judgments.
“We’ve gotta say we’re pretty impressed, the build seems as solid as a rock, the screens are crazy bright and all the glossy keys catch the light just right. We could even say that we’re glad they took the time to get everything right, but it has been a painful decade, so we’ll see.”
