I have been wondering when someone was going to put emoji keys on a
keyboard.

Looks like they (so far) only done a limited run of these, they're all
now "currently unavailable". I suspect there's not enough demand
(sanity prevails!).

There's also silicone overlay/covers for specific keyboards which when
combined with custom software gives a somewhat similar effect, it's
not as good (harder to trigger the switch) but on the other hand is
way cheaper ($10-$20).
