Imagine the keys would become capital when pressing the shift key

I once saw advertised a keyboard that had little screens in each of the keycaps. This was over ten years ago. I haven’t seen it tried since.

That would be the Optimus keyboard. I heard it’s really prone to failing.

Finalmouse and Flux keyboards are in the works.

Someone suggested that to me because I use Dvorak. Checked it out. I’m not paying over a grand for a keyboard, and when I checked the reviews, once you get past the gimmick, it’s not really a very good keyboard anyway.

Would dvorak be an excuse for one of those legendless keyboards?

You mean, blank keycaps? Sure, if you want… Not like you’d be able to use any of the letter keys as printed anyway.

Btw, at least with mechanicals, you can get replacement keycaps and they sell blank ones, would be a lot cheaper than springing for a Das Keyboard
