Art Lebedev Studio is in preparation of new keyboard for Optimus family, this next big release will be Optimus Popularis. Shorter and it will be based on a totally different principle than those OLEDs in Maximus keyboard.

11 extra keys are above the F-keys now. Hmm I would say very strange area around them but I’m sure this is not final look of it, am I right designers in Art Lebedev Studio? ;-)

Good news is that it became more afordable, price should be under 1000USD still quite a lot for most of the people. Lets wait a bit more it will go down! (hopefuly)  BTW Optimus Maximus Keyboard received iF communication design award this year. Congrats!
