« on: Wed, 20 December 2017, 15:30:16 »
has anyone used this before? https://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=9SIAF1H6HH3739&ignorebbr=1

I'm interested in any experiences with it.

No Linux support, automatic trash.
It looks a tad overpriced. Just handwire a 3x5 grid and define the macros in either qmk or on OS layer.

Looks visually attractive. There are questions though:
* How many layers?
* How many images can be stored in the device (or are they continuously downloaded from the OS side?)
* Looks like the majority of the software is likely on the OS side.
* What happens when they go out of business, drop support for the Rev 1 model and the old SW fails on your latest OS?

There's a Youtube reviews available, here's one: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=51KTKiY0bus

It looks like a knockoff of this.
