Anyone have any thoughts / experience with the Wooting optical switch keyboards? I like the idea of having an optical WASD. When playing games on a keyboard, motion being a binary toggle is more jarring than when using a joystick.

I was worried about compatibility, but it seems like the Wooting can emulate a controller so it just requires the game to support simultaneous keyboard / joystick input.

If you are used to nice keyboard switches, the Wooting switches really don't feel great. A cool product, but I don't use my Wooting much now because typing feel is so crummy.
