You can get the same effect for hundreds of dollars less with a little thing called labels.
Or double sided tape and a piece of paper.
Just print out all the stuff and tape it on.

ummmm....no! That keyboard is awesome. I bet it will cost like ??? $250. I just got a new keyboard for Christmas actually, I wanted it because I always am in the dark and holding the keyboard to the monitor to find keys, so this is just more conveinent.

The buttons are pretty much just automatically changing key labels, you could get the same effect with paper and tape, you'de just have to change them. The programmable keys are nothing special, my PDA external keyboard has 10. The other keys don't apear to be configurable, but rather just show what each key happens to do (in the photoshop layout, those are standard...) Other than that, this thing is awesome, but it looses its cool-ness after being used for so much time, plus, are your really going to be reconfiguring the program keys over and over? those would be permanent anyway. And the key labels would be of no use if you memorize all of them. It's just cool looking, but I don't think it's very practical (but hell yes, i would want it)

you only have to program them once, the keyboard will save each keyboard layout automatically and itll stay saved till you delete it.
