Unusual Keyboards

In the last few months I have discovered those two alternative keyboards. I haven't tried them yet but both are very intriguing to me.

Das Keyboard

The picture is explicit. It's a 'blank' keyboard in the sense that nothing is written on the keys. The theory is that it forces you to truly touch type since you don't have any visual clues.

In time, providing you use computer long enough each day, you will become a much faster typist.

I haven't tried it yet. My reservation is concerning the rarely used keys. Can you find them?

The Optimus Keyboard

It's a bit the opposite of 'Das Keyboard'. Here each key has led indications and the advantage is that the keys show exactly what you type.

Those using different keyboards, such as myself using the 'Dvorak layout' or others using different languages, get to exactly see the proper keys.
