You can have my mechanical keyboard when you pry it out of my cold, dead fingers.<p>It's cool as a design study, but that full-size-ish mechanical keyboards will remain popular as long as working with more than a paragraph of text at a time remains popular. A device like this could probably do fairly well around the $500 price point, but I think it would be very niche much higher than that.<p>What I <i>would</i> like to see is a better implementation of the basic concept behind the Touchbook - a tablet that becomes a clamshell notebook when attached to a removable keyboard/base. That base should certainly include an extra battery and might also add more processing power, storage and connectivity.
