This is a rebranded/reskinned WORK LOUDER Creator Micro 2 btw ( https://worklouder.cc/creator-micro-2 ). Great device if you're into expensive tech toys (a la Teenage Engineering), but if you were waiting for a big OpenAI hardware reveal sorry to disappoint.

$56 premium for the OpenAI skin. :)

I'm curious who the target audience is. As a developer I already spend all day at my keyboard, so I'm not yet convinced dedicated hardware is faster than a desktop app. I'd love to hear from people who've actually used it.

The keyboard community maybe? I think these little macro pads are neat, but I don't have a real use for them either.

A quarter RGB keyboard for the price of half a MacBook Neo? Yeah this will sell like hot cakes...

It isn't meant to sell like hot cakes. Work Louder is the keyboard equivalent of Teenage Engineering. They make expensive toys for silicon valley engineers.

I thought this was an aprils fools joke. Then i realized it’s July..

How long before someone shows a hobby project with a robotic arm and computer vision controlling one of these?

I am only half-joking.
