Original thread by the Bear... but expired. So here's a update.

The full-fledged keyboard went into production cycle about a month
ago. Art. Lebedev Studio (The makers) are going to start accepting
pre-orders around December 2006 with shipping date after Spring
2007.

Meanwhile, the company has released another product which has
similiar capabilities but sorta like a mini-me to the full-fledged
keyboard.
Optimus mini is an auxiliary keyboard with three keys, each
complete with an OLED screen displaying the current function.
The keyboard is placed either horizontally or vertically: the
images displayed on the keys are turned using the Optimus
Configurator software.
Optimus mini is a blank sheet. Its hard to say what a usual
monitor is worth until you open an image on it. The same goes for
Optimus mini: the more plugins that support applications there are
for Optimus Configurator, the more indispensable is the keyboard
for daily use.
