Title: The indestructible Keyboard
Post by: Hooper2092 on March 29, 2004, 01:03:38 PM
Has anyone seen these before? I bought one and its pretty cool. It's got a cool light blue look- made of ?silcone? not sure- but I can roll it up, spill soda on it, beat the hell out of it when my computer locks up (which inevitably led me into buying keyboard #6,200,431)- It took me a while to get used to typing on it, but it's completely silent... just wondered if anyone else out there had it or used it. I found it at Radio Shack for like 35$

The one that I'm really interested in is the laser keyboard... It just displays light onto the table and you move your fingers over it to type... They added a feature to it, to make it sound as if you are really typing on it because there is no sense of touch feeback or the click click sound feedback of the keyboard...

Holycrap, that's insane. I don't know if I could train my mind to be able to "virtually type"

Why don't you try it with yours and then let me know what happened, 'cause I really have no clue.  ::)

*DJ <whispers> I wonder if he's going to fall for this one*

That's all right I have about 3 backup keyboards. :P

The logitech ones that are rechargeable are really nice... They just have little stands that you put your kb and m into when you are done with the computer and they charge up for you every night... Never have to worry about batteries at all...  I would use 'em but I play too many fast paced FPS on the 'net and the wireless ones (when moving fast) tend to spaz on the mice, they don't pick up all of the movements...

I'm using a Microsoft Pro keyboard at the moment and it still uses the PS/2 port. Same as my mouse, which is a Microsoft Optical Trackball. I've had all sorts of keyboards and mouse's thrown away, and decided to pay some extra dough for Microsoft's good stuff. So far never had a problem.
The cheapest and crapiest keyboards and mouses you could find usually have the name Fellowes on them. I had a Gel Mouse from them and it broke within a week. Keys stuck without anything spilled on them. *Striking forehead with palm of hand*

That VIK keybaord looks nice, and I might buy it in the future. I just tend to think wireless is better with laptops and PDA's, since you really don't have alot of room to setup a computer. Now if I were to buy something wireless, it would have to be for speakers or a set of headphones. Any of you with 5.1 and 6.1 surround sound system's for your pc, know there's a ton of cords to sort through.

Well that's my 2 cents.

Wireless is cool... But not having to pay oodels for AA batteries is MUCH better... Plus when you use your comp alot you'll start to notice the lag between keystrokes and mouse movements with the wireless...

Quoteand decided to pay some extra dough for Microsoft's good stuff
Good stuff and Microsoft are three words that should never ever be put in the same sentence...  :-\
