FYI, the small version has been out for a year or so.  The Optimus
keyboard, only three or four months.  Right after they rolled out the
full KB, either GE or Westinghouse announced that they had a new,
cheaper way to manufacture OLED's in sheets, which will make this sort
of input device much more cost-effective.  In situations such as ours,
where we have legacy applications that make heavy use of function keys
in terminal application software, this brings a wonderful way to
transition to new technology because we can simply and easily update
each display, which means that folks will quickly be able to see what
it is they are pressing, and therefore will hit fewer wrong keys.
