Title: New cheaper version of Optikeys?
Post by: Lilwolf on December 10, 2007, 05:47:39 am
Cool lcd/rgb buttons!  And purchaced one at a time!  Might be perfect for a few buttons on a control panel!  Plus its a homegrown project!

My only trouble with them... The size seems like they would be perfect for admin buttons, and their text doesn't change that often.   Still cool!

That would cool if someone makes a nice frontend program for them.

Or better yet, an "ANY" key.

for what it is the price is decent. Just wish it was a little more flush.

As bizarre as this sounds. The Any Key is on my DVD remote. Not kidding.
