Fabric keyboard increases productivity, comfort

eleksen.jpg

Carrying a full-size keyboard around with your mobile device makes it significantly less portable in most cases. Not so with this Eleksen Fabric Keyboard, which rolls up and weighs a mere 2.3 ounces. When rolled out, it's about the size of a standard laptop keyboard and connects to your Blackberry, Treo, or other smartphone via Bluetooth. Getting you away from those tiny thumb-operated keyboards will definitely save you from an early sentence of arthritis and a lifetime of being unable to open pickle jars. Soft, light, and water resistant due to the lack of mechanical parts, the Fabric Keyboard gives you the extra benefit of being a much more comfortable pillow than a normal keyboard when you pass out at your desk after squinting into a 3-inch screen for 12 hours. It's available now to distributors for about $73, so look for it in stores for a bit more than that very soon.

Wow. I had heard of rumors of something like this being developed. This is a very solid product that I'd like to try out. This would be good to have in the office as well as when mobile. Too many people develop hand conditions because of a career of typing and computer use. This fabricboard would definately soften the blow.

Only question is... how much will this baby be?
