It's a touch over 92mm^2, you should be able to figure out the other dimension from that. Smiley
That doesn't sound like it's even an inch high!

the logo on the box was photo-shopped taking total credibility away from this.

do NOT worry, I am sure when BFL is ready to release photo's of their ASIC line of products it will not be found by some scrupulous google'r in a secret place

I am sure they will announce it in grandiose fashion for the world to see.

1. It's a rendering. Why would you "Photoshop" a rendering. I would hope their engineers are smart enough to add a logo rastered on the top of the case in their CAD program (looks like Solidworks?).

2. That photo was placed on their Facebook page (which I can only assume is for PR purposes). So it was a [semi]official release from BFL.

An empty mug, a Truly Ergonomic Keyboard, some fake watches and two Apple TV boxes with a photoshopped jalapeno logo.

Real watches, but good catch on the TE keyboard. :-)

How are they in use? I was thinking about getting one, but as a touch typist the placement of the shift keys really weirds me out.

You'll see the white labels where I had to make backspace and tab very prominent.  I've remapped many of the keys (and use a colemak layout), so the left space is command, etc.  Shift is surprisingly comfortable.

If you look at their standard key mapping, they put \,|,/,?,`,~, and quotes in really odd places.  Tab, backspace, and enter are a bit of a pain (missing tab and hitting backspace a couple times sucks when coding) and I've remapped the left space bar to Command.  Since it's trivial to remap keys, it would have been nice to have something "conventional", but it beats having wrist pain at any rate.

They're noisy, even with the 'silent' cherry key option.  Not as loud as an M, but much louder than, say, a flat Apple keyboard.

I will say, though, that after getting up to about 50% normal speed, I've noticed that my wrists are much more comfortable with the matrix key layout.  I've gone through a lot of keyboards, and this one has the advantage of superior ergo and a small desktop footprint.

Oh, they're reprogrammable? One would have thought they'd mention that on their sales spiel.

Definitely going to get one now. I love the Cherry MX switches. As you said, not quite an M, but near enough.
