The keyboard itself looks good but hardware vendors (including keyboard manufacturers) have a track record of making abysmal software. In fact, software should probably be their primary focus. From their FAQ it look like they want themselves to add support for every application. Will they have an SDK for other software vendors to add support to their applications? Being more open, e.g. making a github repo where anyone can contribute support for any application would be welcome.

Mark my words. If they release a good SDK for this, and this product catches on, we will have, "Jenna Jameson Teaches Typing".
This just sounds like you are completely set on making that.
Your ideas are intriguing to me and I wish to back your kickstarter.
What’s the joke here? I don’t understand
Porn typing game.
Yeah but what does that have to do with this keyboard in particular?
The keyboard has a screen.

I picture a naked torso with all the sensitive zones under the correct letters. Typing the right letters triggers something to happen.
This keyboard is a computer. They should have built a server of some kind (REST API, whatever) to manage the keyboard and documented it. They could provide a client for Windows, Linux and Mac OS developers would have built one or many of them for their OSes.
