The keyboard that was initially greeted with skepticism, then Web-wide lust, then renewed skepticism, should finally be making its way off of drawing boards and under anxious geek fingers soon. The Optimus Maximus LCD keyboard has gone on sale in an unlimited production run.
While the first three limited edition runs have all been preordered and should be arriving shortly (in December and early January), those who didn’t have the cash to pony up for these early rounds are now able to preorder again, with the actual product set to arrive in late February 2008.
Unfortunately, the keyboards will still sell for $1574 USD, not the original sub-$500 and sub-$1,000 prices rumored back in the beginning of November. While those versions could still be on the way, for now, the elite will still have to break open their piggy banks to be the first on the block with an LCD keyboard.
