Wey-Tec MK06

[ander]

I see one of these remarkable things has hit eBay:

WEY TEC Model MK06 Multifunctional Keyboard








I almost blew it off, till I saw Chyros's review and learned that if anything could be considered the Swiss Army Knife of keyboards, this is it.

Unfortunately, at $200 shipped, it's not cheap (and this one doesn't have the extra upper-right corner keypad like the one in C.'s review). But where else will you find a board with not one but three colour LCD displays, that can control up to 16 computers and connect to just about anything? And don't overlook the 13 embedded-LED keys, thick double-shot ABS buttons with Cyrillic secondary legends, and fruit-salad corner pad.

It's the most compact version of a NASA mission control centre you're going to see out there.

Obviously a company has to be pretty proud of its product when it puts two logo badges on it.  :?)

Probably for those people with poor peripheral vision so that a logo is visible at all times.

There are 3 out of 8 left. Note that these don't appear to come with the cables, box and probably not the code either, so it may be impossible to get any of these to ever work.

Very cool keyboard.  I wouldn't have known anything about these weren't it for Chyros' review (which was excellent, btw).

It reminds me in a lot of ways of the Reuters / Cherry G80-9009HAU:



I don't really know what special features it has compared to the Wey-Tec, but from the keycaps one could assume that it is also a trading desk keyboard with multiple screen support.  I would love to see one of these powered up and running in all its glory. :-D
