(There's also a video that confirms it's a MacBook Pro).

Those keys look really "flat". Looks like they were copy/pasted on.

Did you watch the video?

Yeah, it's a fake. They photoshopped the keys on a MacBook Pro in a demo video of an Android application.

That's what they did. I should've known...

From the comment at the bottom of the Engadget article:

Hi, I'm the one that wrote this app, so a few replies:

The app is for controlling a computer during presentations, if you want to use it from the couch, or any time you don't want to be tied to a larger keyboard and mouse.

I actually wasn't aware of Gmote when I did this. I've checked it out, and it's nice, but it's primarily a media control app. The keyboard lacks control keys, and the shift key seems to work inconsistently. I wanted to make a more narrowly-focused app that does one thing well. Other features that Gmote lacks are things like a scroll wheel, which I plan on adding soon.

The black keys are just a protective rubber cover that I got from my local Mac store. $10 bucks or so.

From the comment at the bottom of the Engadget article:

lol. I hope the beginning was sarcasm

But thanks for adding the comment, I posted this before the person that made the video even responded.

That display is definitely photoshopped.
