Rumors of a New Das?

I've been out for a while and I heard there's a new Das coming out. Anyone have any idea of what's changed?

I am just hoping for less shiny plastic this time around. This seems to be something that a lot of people really did not like about their keyboards.

In the same vein, PCs are consumable goods, while keyboards are important interfaces." - Eiiti Wada

How about a bluetooth and tenkeyless DAS? That would be excellent. I am tired of having to plug in my keboards. I like the wireless keyboards because a lot of the new computers don't have many USB hubs.

Yeah, their new product looks like this:



They're calling it Das Boot. 



It also happens to be waterproof.    ;)

Don't know where you are getting your comps by my new-ish pc has 6 USB2.0 ports on the back plate 2 USB 3.0 ports on back and 2 more on the front with 3 sets of usb headers on the motherboard which can accomodate 6 more ports plus what ever I could cram into PCI slots.  Plus 4 USB 3.0 slots on my Asus monitor

TAKE MY MONEY  Where did these come from?

A non shiney Das would be awesome and if they keep the USB passthrough make it 3.0

Edit:  Just headed over to www.daskeyboards.com and they do have the Model S Proffesional available in MX reds now.  Not sure how new of a development this is though

One on each side toward the inside of the keys?  Or just under the thumb keys?  I think under the thumb keys would give you the most options for hardware placement.

Wouldn't be very "Ergo" though. Stretching your thumb that far would take your fingers off the home row, and that's the best part about the ErgoDox. You never have to do that.

Very good points.  Possibly have custom caps made for thumb to put track point there or blank caps for where the track point would come through around index finger on dominant hand then?
