And what if there is no keyboard shortcut?
I thought it might be useful for Office, for things like Fett (bold) and Kursiv (italics), as they don't have keyboard shortcuts in the German version...
Can it also macro mouse clicks?
That said, I would want colour OLEDs...

Arggh!
Great innovative, versatile hardware let down by crappy closed software! When will hardware manufacturers learn? For goodness sake supply an open API and let the open source/shareware community write you some decent software!

Automatically changing functions and images of keys might be a revolution
As said in the article with appropriate easy to use software if one can assign different keys and images to different applications (word, excel, outlook, photoshop) and if these keys are activated automatically with switching to that program will be revolution after the invention of wheels on mice :)

It's a nice idea but I'll wait until Logitech or Razer do it properly.

Touch Typists Love Random Function Buttons
My keyboard has dual function F-keys. Great idea, helps break up the day by performing random preprogrammed functions instead of what I intend it to do.

insult to injury
And why do they have to insult everyone's intelligence by telling us we don't need it? Clearly they have hit a technical issue they can't resolve and are too ashamed to admit it.
I hate that barefaced lying companies employ to cover up their shortcomings. Like Royal Mail shoving deliveries to the afternoons and telling is it's to 'improve customer service'. It's PR by Franz Kafka.
