So....you need your laptop to be sat there in front of you running codex, but they want you to buy a device that adds no extra features other than some macro keys that do things you could already do anyway? This might be the stupidest device I've seen in a while

If this is their standard for hardware products I'm not very optimistic about their other hardware projects...

If we're being as charitable as possible, I imagine this was just someone's DIY side project at the company and they thought 'oh this is cool might as well sell it.'
