Keyboard Of The Future, Yours For Only £790!

May 17, 2007

Okay this piece of kit isn’t going to help your business anytime soon, but if the price dropped dramatically and key vendors such as Adobe and Microsoft decided to support it within their applications, maybe it could?

 

Okay why does this keyboard cost £790? It’s a bit like the keyboards on Star Trek but with a tactile feel of a traditional keyboard. Each key is like a tiny flat screen (OLED to be precise!) which can be configured to display anything you like. So for example if you hit the CAPS LOCK key the typeface would shift to upper case. Say you are using Microsoft Word the F5 key would say “Find & Replace” rather than F5.
