While the announcement was silly, the insistence that it’s a real product is absolutely bonkers.
But ultimately I think it is vaporware and they are just pushing the “it’s real” narrative for social media reach.
- yardie 6y agoThe Lifetime movie "Recipe for Seduction" was all the way real, believe it or not [0]. I thought it was a gag too but it was playing last time I turned to that channel. CM could be taking the piss, but it would be kinda neat if it was real. I don't see a price or ordering information on the page, yet. So 50/50 chance this is legit.

- hakfoo 6y agoI expect they'll make a few units and give them away as a sweepstakes, or maybe a few dozen/hundred to be sold as a novelty. It can be a product without being a mass market retail product. Their Japanese division offered a custom keyboard in ~2014 as a contest prize.
