YOUR keyboard could probably cause just as much cancer as any other keyboard out there...

I like Alex's keyboard. The one that one virtual keyboard that uses infrared light is really cool, high in tech, but I need to press on buttons (keys). Try looking at that picture and start pressing on your desk as you would do in anyother keyboard, very unconfortable.

The optimus keyboard has buttons and you can opimize it to anything you want, I like that you can optimize the buttons into any game, like Quake.

The PROKEY keyboard is just a flate keyboard with no features. Except it's really portable!

Look at what else they're selling at "i want one of those"

I quote:
Sadly a bureaucrat with the imagination and flair of a cashew nut has demanded that we no longer sell the L39 Jet. Apparently due to some Consumer Protection Act or other, we may no longer offer the Jet (and we were selling so many, after all), in case someone hurts themselves - go figure. You can still buy one, but not from us - sorry.

This keyboard is so fucking awesome -- just think, the keys will light up with in game icons when playing Warcraft III and stuff, forget hotkeys, little icons from the game will show up!

Ah yess, the Optimus keyboard. I Would like one of those. As for the laser one, it appears that it isn't for the computer as apparent with this statement: transfers your keystrokes via wireless networking to your PDA, Pocket PC or smart phone Doesn't say normal PC. :( oh well, the optimus will do just fine, since it can change what appears on the keys, from the looks of it.

I've seen the Optimus keyboard before, it does look awesome. If it wasn't too expensive I'd buy it. It would definitely make a great conversation starter "so...my keyboard, it's uber."
