The Earth-Toned Pill

Ready for the ultimate geek peripheral guaranteed to make you an instant target for murder by all your friends and coworkers? Well feast your eyes on this:

The Optimus Maximus Keyboard.

My friends over at Thinkgeek.com began selling these recently, and went out of stock within a couple weeks. Don't worry though, more will be in stock by the time my b-day rolls around again...

So why is this bad boy so special? Let me explain:

The Art Lebedev design studio in Russia designed this bad boy some time ago and has just now managed to get it into production. This keyboard is extra-special, becuase in addition to the USB2 hub and SD card slot, each key on this keyboard is actually a tiny OLED screen that can display any gif or Quicktime video @48x48 pixel resolution.

That's right, 113 programmable OLED screens.

So what if it costs a whopping $1,600? I always wanted a really good reason to holdup a liquor store that didn't involve a crack habit...
