the mini version is out now. probably isn't worth buying seeing as OLED lifespan is very short.

how much is it for the full keyboard and how long is the oled lifespan?

[Lil Miss Carob Snuggles]

full keyboard I'm guesssing is going to be around $300.

OLED lifespan is 10,000 hours, but new OLEDs are being developed that have a 100,00 hour lifespan. Note that they don't die at 10,000 hours but they lose half of their brightness. OLED displays don't need a backlight so they're much thinner than their counterparts. OLED televisions use a lot more energy than LCD televisions, and have a shorter lifespan that the LCD and plasma displays, too.

also regular LEDs have a 100,000 hour lifespan.

A year and a half of constant use, at which point toby said it doesn't stop working, they just dim and don't display as clear. $300 for a year and a half of pimpen keyboard use is fine w/ me.

no one is 24/7 on their shit

I don't use my PC 24/7.. But I have it on 24/7. So unless the keyboard goes into some kinda sleep mode when idle and not active it would be powered on almost 24/7 for me. Sleep mode would be nice though,then that bitch would last for a long time.

It says it features a "key-saver," which I'm assuming is like a screen saver.

Those are pretty damn neat. I too think its what our future of keyboards will be.
