Roccat announced its most out of the box gaming keyboard, the Sova. Designed for gaming PCs in the living rooms, the Sova is a modular keyboard/lap-desk, which combines a 74-key mechanical keyboard with a palm-rest, a mouse surface, a mouse bungee, and a smartphone rail, all integrated into a lightweight aluminium plank that can be easily disassembled by the end user. Roccat claims the Sova lets you "own the couch." It comes in two color variants - matte black, and silver. The company didn't announce pricing or availability.

not so much about 'owning' the couch but owning from "BEYOND" the couch. what sick mofo wants to beat up a couch anyway? who would do such a thing?

Then again, I am not lonely or desperate enough to give a couch a pounding to fill in for a certain something else that my life may be lacking.

This isn't such a bad thing if reasonably priced. I currently use a K400 with a wireless mouse and an old wooden keyboard tray. Does the job but it isn't pretty.

Sova sounds like a pretentious coffehouse that won't serve anything under 10USD and forces you to make a donation to a pretentious charity in the amount of 20USD before you can use their wifi and has political and demotivation posters everywhere and there's this wierd guy named fred that hangs out there and smells bad and passses out religious papers and the barista has a stick up her butt.

That's what I think of when I see that name LOL. Not a gamer keyboard.
