The 5Q is a new cloud-connected, intelligent keyboard⌨.

Created by Das Keyboard, a popular brand in the tech / coding world, the 5Q is the first keyboard to take input (typing) and also output info to you. Let me explain. You can program the 5Q to flash the letter B red when you receive an email from your boss❗️, have the spacebar flash like the rainbow if your website goes down, or have the 💰sign turn green when your stocks go up! 📈

Das’s keyboard comes with software allowing you to fully customize the keyboard and its alert functions. The 5Q costs $109 and has raised $24,000 on Kickstarter.

Programmers, do you need a keyboard with this intelligence?
