New Keyboard from Think Outside
Posted by Jason Dunn in "ARTICLE" @ 04:37 PM
This Brighthand review covers the Palm version of the keyboard, but how much do you want to make a bet that there will be a Pocket PC version out soon enough? I'm very confident that Think Outside will leverage this design into the same markets as all their current keyboards. Now if only they'd release keyboards for more Pocket PC devices...
"Bob Olodort, founder and CEO of Think Outside and the keyboard's inventor, was committed to making a keyboard that is as much like typing on a desktop or laptop keyboard as possible. This means that saving space by reducing the size of each key was out of the question. Therefore, in order to make the new version of the Stowaway smaller than the original, he reduced the number of keys. The original Stowaway has 69 keys, while the Ultra-Thin Keyboard has 51 keys."
