Art. Lebedev Studio's Optimus Store in NY
There are seven offline Art. Lebedev Studio stores on European side of Atlantic (where we sell what we design - from chocolate sweets to electronics).

On 08.08.2008 we are opening our very own 8th offline store in New York.

In the beginning it will be a 'store inside store' model - we're be based inside the RCS Computer Experience (http://www.rcsnet.com/) located at 575 Madison Ave. and E 56th Street (on the second floor, just opposite the escalator).

Main difference of this store comparing with our other retail places is that in New York we're selling mostly electronic products, or, to be honest, we're mainly selling Optimus Maximuses there.

So starting early August come by RCS Computer Experience in NY and grab an Optimus Maximus.

So, there still will be no “Vernost Kachestvu” chocolate in NY?

No, thanks. While the concept of Opt Max keyboard may seem cool, these gizmos are definitely destined to become vaporware: they simply cannot be used as keyboards, because of poor mechanics.

I'm thinking that you aren't sure on the definition of vaporware...
This is vaporware. The Optimus Maximus is already out and being used, and as such has already passed the possibility of vaporware.

I'm not sure where you get your information about "poor mechanics", or what you base this opinion off of, but if you can't substantiate it, then I'd suggest you keep your anonymous trolling to yourself. The rest of us who either have used, currently use, own, or plan to own one of these would simply appreciate it if you'd shut up. Either back up your opinions with fact or keep them to yourself. In this case, you simply happen to be wrong and a retraction from you might be in order. Think about it.

I think he means that by continuously typing on them, the Optimuses (Optimii?) will eventually literally turn into vapor.

Optimus Maximus was named among the worst gadgets ever by Wired Magazine, 16.06.2008, p. 177, just because of its poor usability. If you ever tried to type on that keyboard, you'd understand exactly why. After about 30 minutes, you give up and start looking for something traditional, because your stiffened, sore hands can take no more torturing... Those keys are OK for an elevator panel, but not for continuous typing.

Ha, that's funny... If you have two, do you have two Optimus Maximuses or two Optimus Maximi? Because obviously you say one octopus and two octopi. But you say one virus, two viruses...

It's probably worth stepping by then! I doubt I'll buy Maximus though.
