a month or so ago i wrote about the Optimus Keyboard from Art Lebedev ( clicky) which looks quite frankly amazing! well now there have been announcements from Art Lebedev regarding the progress of this project... not good announcements. "At the moment we're concidering to use FSTN displays with a polarizer in Optimus' keys. But it is possible that we may use some new OLEDs we're learned about recently.
Optimus-103 will use black and white displays (B&W is perfect for 95% of all tasks a keyboard requires). Color will come later at a greater price." 
but wait, not only is it black and white, but also only half the key will display an image...  also the 8 function keys on the left have been ditched... you can read more here ( clicky) this especially sucks as the Optimus Mini 3 has been out for a while and looks pretty cool - if limited ( clicky)
