OpenAI's first hardware product, the Codex Micro keyboard, has seen significant resale value on eBay, with some units fetching over $1,000 despite its original $230 price tag. This limited-edition keyboard, developed in partnership with Work Louder, is designed for coders using OpenAI's Codex tool and features unique functionalities like an LED status ring and a joystick. Despite its high resale price, some programmers have criticized the device as superfluous, suggesting that similar functionality can be achieved with cheaper programmable keyboards and open-source software.
