>The computer keyboard as we know it has to be extended(...)yes/no and other control keys.
The Macbook Touchbar is pretty much exactly this, it shows e.g. dialog options as keys. I know it's not what you want (I like mechanical keys too), but it's the first actual extension of keyboards in a long time and it's convenient sometimes.
There is also the Optimus keyboard that sounds more or less like what you want built.
>Why there's no contextual Info key to show information/help pertaining the current task?
Usually F1 brings up relevant help on Windows. The actual implementation in most apps is useless though.
I’ve had that page bookmarked for like 5 years now, and its never changed/stopped being out of stock. I’m starting to doubt it ever physically existed..
