Optimus With Color In February?

Optimus has been releasing a lot of weird news lately. First he says his keyboards will not have color for the keys, and then next the keyboard will cost $1200. Now he’s announcing that it will have OLEDS, and color for each key. With this change comes another delay for pre-orders. The current stance is pre-orders will be available around the time of February 2007, this being later than the planned December 12th date. This date is of course one year later than the originally planned release date which was February 1st, 2006.

With numerous delays, and price hikes, I fail to see how this keyboard will ever be successful. He posts press releases on a Live Journal, has delayed the release date by over a year, and is giving outrageous prices. I can’t imagine what price he’s going to want for the color version, when his $1200 figure was for the black and white version (which he now says won’t ever be released). Either this is the worst company on earth, or this whole thing is a giant hoax.
