Art Lebedev Mini Six and Optimus Popularis launching at last

Chris Burns, Jan 17th 2012 Discuss [0]

The relatively short history of the Art Lebedev line of customizable keyboards is a tragic one when you consider how much we've wanted to get our hands on every single one of these OLED screen per-key boards and their subsequent delays, but now we're really getting down to business here in 2012 with not only the Mini Three and the Aux, but the Mini Six and the long-awaited Optimus Popularis as well. The great thing about these boards of keys is that not only are they customizable in their functions, they are each of them their own OLED display*, this allowing you to show yourself whatever you like to tap. While the original Optimux Maximus has been out for some time (2007), we've been waiting for the full expansion for what seems like an eternity. Read The Full Story

Can PRADA Save LG?

Chris Davies, Dec 14th 2011 Discuss [7]

LG’s first PRADA Phone was legitimately groundbreaking, with its pre-iPhone capacitive touchscreen. The second PRADA handset was a stumbling attempt to cash in on a much-loved fashion label. Now, with the PRADA Phone by LG 3.0, the Korean firm is hoping to follow in the footsteps of Samsung and end 2011 on a high. The signs are surprisingly good: a great display only marred by mediocre resolution, a neatly designed body and no shortage of top-tier features like NFC, speedy HSPA+ and a potent dual-core. Can the third-gen PRADA Phone – and the lessons to be learned from it – lead LG to mobile salvation?

Chris Davies, Nov 18th 2008 Discuss [0]

Art Lebedev Studios have released an image of what they're calling the "final pre-production prototype" of the Optimus AUX, which presumably means that commercial versions of the 15-key OLED 'board will look this way. They've also, finally, given an indication of price: around $650. Read The Full Story

Optimus Aux prototype breaks cover

Chris Davies, Nov 5th 2008 Discuss [0]

Optimus have released photos of the newly assembled Aux prototype, the fifteen-key accessory that will use the same OLED technology as its Maximus full-QWERTY sibling. While it's arguably straightforward to produce a slick prototype and then ruin things with a shoddy production run, we have to give the Optimus guys credit here: the Aux looks great.

Optimus Aux renders: size, key tweaks and port changes detailed

Chris Davies, Sep 19th 2008 Discuss [0]

Two Optimus posts in one day almost smacks of Maximus hype, but it's Friday and we do have some slick new renders of the recently-christened Aux. Optimus have tweaked the design from its initial, Pultius form: gone are the odd gaps between the columns, and an extra USB port has been added to the back. Optimus originally suggested that the USB could be used to daisy-chain multiple keypads together. Read The Full Story

The fifteen key add-on will offer a lower-priced point of entry to people wanting customizable keys but unable to afford the full Maximus. Read The Full Story
