Again. The once great, now non-existent Optimus Maximus keyboard from Russian designer Art Lebedev has been delayed. This is not the first time that such delays have happened; the name of the device is practically synonymous with vaporware.
To put things in perspective, the Maximus was first announced right around July of 2005. Since then, it’s release has been marred with delays due to lack of OLED keys, and so on.
This time around, the delay is a result of Lebedev wanting to completely finalize the firmware of the keyboard. The keyboard is said to be ready by February. For those who can’t wait, you could buy the keyboard now, and figure out to download the software when the time comes.
