Apple will sue them for that keyboard design!

Spec and design are very nice but $100 for a keyboard and mouse, really?! I cant buy the response from Young Kim about it being comparable to high-end jewellery. lol.
Is it just me or does that Wedge Touch Mouse look absolutely awful to use, ergonomically?
Yeah it's weird isn't it? I'd like to try it though - along with the other mouse there.Originally Posted by AlexKitch

Looks like something twiki from Buck Rogers would use... Looks retro - but not cool
And some more Microsoft pretending to be Apple. Apple can get away with over designing something and over pricing it but I don't think Microsoft can.
That's a bad image of the wedge. I had no idea how I'd even hold it until I saw the image at the top of this news item. This actually makes me think it would be a cute travel mouse, and because of gesture support it might make Metro more usable. I'll want to read reviews to learn more, but at least my thought is no longer "WTF".
I didn't think Windows 8 needed a keyboard and mouse. It's all touchscreen, right? Certainly when I've been testing it, it's basically taunted me for using a mouse.
PHP Code:$s = new signature();
$s->sarcasm()->intellect()->font('Courier New')->display();
I suspect the idea is to cripple your mousing hand so you move over to something more Metro friendly
I think the "wedge" is a fabulous design! I have had this door that keeps banging in the wind so have found a great doorstop thats going to fit perfectly!
Also does anyone else think the "wedge" looks like something out of RobotWars? I have this feeling just by looking at it that a buzzsaw is ready to fly out the front lol

I really dont think Apple have anything to worry about. The top mouse should have been yellow
Meh is all I can say. Not impressed at all and what a horrible price!
God I wish Apple would die so I wouldn't be scared about the imminent demise of Microsoft.
once upon a time Microsoft made some great mice, not sure if that's one of them :/
aaaaaaaandd no new MCE remote. MS hardware has always been pretty good quality wise, but that mouse looks horrid.
