I used to follow the development of their first OLED keyboard, it took years. Then it was available for an outrageous amount of money, and consequently was a short lived product.

It also didn't help that as a typing keyboard, it was terrible. The keys wobbled as they were pressed. The keys were flat and butted against each other so it was difficult to touch-type. I got the chance to actually play with one while working on an unreleased competing product.

As for the price, I recall that keyboard costing ~$1500. Ouch.
