Gentle reminder that a wired keyboard is by far the most sustainable option.
So, do that. Unless you really need that keyboard to move freely.
Yeah, I can see this being good for media center PCs, but would not be my everyday keyboard. Also if it requires specific software that is a no go
Logitech requires login and connection to their servers to carry out some configs. I'm a long time user, but won't buy anymore
That's a no from me. Too bad. I like the possibilities of solar-powered devices.
Looks like it's carving out a piece of profits from more niche markets. The Soleil is dropping for pre order on October 10. But unlike Logitech, this one has FOSS firmware and is not made of plastic that degrades within three years.
But also probably 4x the price.
Omg. That thing is GORGEOUS. thanks for maling me spend money :-)
Neither do light powered watches, they will happily run with a few hours indoor light per day
The K980 ditches them in favor of making you install Logi Options Plus to find out. Boo.
Instant e-waste.
I think if I was going to get a new keyboard, i would want to go one of two routes. Either super customizable, or go super silly overpriced. Have you seen that flux keyboard? It looks bonkers but it's like $500 - $600
What about this baby.
I looked at it, thought "it looks fairly average, I wonder what's unique about it"
I saw the price and my eyes went wide lol
I literally just heard of it today because I came across a video of Adam savage interviewing the creator. Apparently he reinvented pretty much everything in it and assembles it all by hand or something.
