My first response was that this seems overly cumbersome and unnecessary.

Then I realized that people who can't use a keyboard at all (or at least, well enough for for one to be useful) due to disabilities will be very grateful for this board's existence. Sadly, I have a suspicion it will be expensive... thus it will likely be out of reach of most of its target audience's price range.

And if you're a gamer who plays anything other than Pogo games and Bejeweled clones, this definitely won't work for you.

It is $400.

An interesting idea.

My first thought was that it would have to stick to the table pretty well, and Linus said that it does tend to move around a bit.

Those with autism might be better getting an ortholinear keyboard with keys arranged in alphabetical order.
"Because keyboards are accessories to PC makers, they focus on minimizing the manufacturing costs. But that’s incorrect. It’s in HHKB’s slogan, but when America’s cowboys were in the middle of a trip and their horse died, they would leave the horse there. But even if they were in the middle of a desert, they would take their saddle with them. The horse was a consumable good, but the saddle was an interface that their bodies had gotten used to. In the same vein, PCs are consumable goods, while keyboards are important interfaces." - Eiiti Wada

Am I the only one that imagined 3d printing a pair of boobs to replace the domes with? This thing looks like it has the functionality of an elaborate doorstop. Speaking of doorstops, they're more entertaining then Linus.

Now you got me thinking, would people buy replacement topre domes in the shape of boobs? No one would know, but you'd know
