    Following the release of a keyboard made of leather, the Japanese can now buy golden keyboards.

    Tokyo-based Wazakura Koubou offers the so-called Kagayaki [JP] in the Japanese layout for $270 exclusively on their website [JP] and in selected Sofmap PC shops in Japan. The keyboard is layered with 99.99% pure gold and features two USB ports.

    A cheaper version for $215, the so-called Kirameki [JP], is also available. The company is saying the golden keyboards bring joy to the buyer just by looking at them.
