What else has this company done? Conceptually, it appears an amazing product. Of course, concept and execution are two things that are often far apart when it comes to keyboards of all types, let alone something like this.
The $20 savings for pre-ordering seems a decent incentive, but $80 is a lot to loan to a company that doesn’t seem to have anything else in this class out there that I found. I learned my lesson six years ago when I pre-ordered a fancy looking uber case for the iPod mini featured on iLounge, a case that took four months longer than initially promised to actually show up and didn’t last three months before the material had stretched to the point that it no longer held the iPod securely.
I’ll keep my eye on this, but they won’t be getting my money until they actually deliver both a product and on the promise of the product.
