Wife just showed this to me on facebook and said she wants one next Christmas. There is nothing to these that isn't inside a kindle and a mechanical keyboard.

Total under $200. They are wanting to charge $500. That's ridiculous. Merry Christmas everyone.

Economies of Scale is a thing. How many of these functionally limited things do you think they can sell?

Yup, that's what they were probably thinking ... thus the price.

I wonder how hipsters separate things they want from things they don't want to want.

Simple: time. If the technology that the item was based on was obsolete by the time they were born, then it is acceptable to openly like it. Exceptions: iPhone, MacBook, the Internet.

Writers are an easily distracted bunch of procrastinators. They need limits to keep them from taking buzzfeed quizzes all day.
