The indestructible Keyboard

[Hooper2092]

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"

and it seems to work ok huh?

Can junk get down in between the keys?

[Hooper2092]

NO- I spilled Pepsi on it, it got sticky- I ran it under water in my bathroom sink- no more sticky- took a couple minutes to dry off completely... and im typing on it right now :-P

[Homer]

D'oh!  :P

[Homer]

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

[Hooper2092]

hehe me too... except after beating the holyhell outta them; one of the spacebar wont work.. another one- when i press N it types T..... (etc) --- they all make nice mantal pieces

I used to like taking the keys off at work and rearranging them. ::)

[Hooper2092]

[Homer]

A lot of people used to do that at school lol, i didn't care because i never looked at the keyboard anyways.

I actually went out tonight and got a cordless kb and mouse... works pretty nice too... was on sale too... saved $20.

Pretty awesome.
