Re: Weird Keyboards

It actually looks like one of these keyboards.

Flexible Rubber & Waterproof Keyboard (USB / PS2) Black



I have one of these (given to me) that I use to keep in my laptop bag. My one son took it over. It is completely waterproof (liquid proof) and washable. I don't even want to go there with the naughty thoughts since its in my kids room

Re: Weird Keyboards
I have to say, that I actually like the Bluetooth Virtual Keyboard.

I would sacrifice having to always write in the dark to use this keyboard.

Why carry a keyboard around with you when you could instead activate this cool virtual keyboard? Well, maybe because jamming your fingers into a solid tabletop trying to press keys that aren't really there doesn't feel so great after a while. Or because the $150 Bluetooth Virtual Keyboard tends to be visible primarily in shady areas (or at night). But don't let these little shortcomings cause you to lose sight of two crucial considerations: It's virtual, and it sports a totally awesome red laser.

To rise again from the ashes.....what an understatement.

Re: Weird Keyboards

i Heart, Heart, Heart, that!! it's on a level of awesomness that few things are.

now WTF is up with this keyboard? (also, i'm loooving the descriptions under each of the keyboards. whoever wrote those is hilarious.)

If aliens (other than Klingons) used computers, they'd probably gravitate toward the $399 OrbiTouch Keyless Ergonomic Keyboard--if only to impress us: "God, they must be an advanced society if they've figured out how to type on that thing." But maybe it really is ergonomic. After all, when was the last time you saw an alien life form wearing braces on its wrists?

Re: Weird Keyboards
Yeah, I don't quite understand how to even use that. Do you put your fist in there and turn or something?

Okay this keyboard is obviously for perverts. First, I think it looks like boobs. Now Oasis thinks you put your first in there...

Re: Weird Keyboards

Here's the description on their website.

The orbiTouch® Keyless ergonomic Keyboard creates a keystroke when you slide the two domes into one of their eight respective positions. You type the different characters by sliding the domes to create letters and numbers. The orbiTouch® Keyless ergonomic Keyboard also has an integrated mouse, so moving the domes gives you full mouse and keyboard capability!

Am I the only one who had to read this like three times before I actually understood what it meant? The idea is kind of confusing. Well, on the bright side, it may be a hit with the guys. They'll think they're touching boobs. Laughing

Re: Weird Keyboards
Oh, I get it now....ROFL. I didn't see that those knobs are popping out. I thought they were caved in so you can insert your fist in them. Whoa, that is like toucing boobs...Laughing.

Re: Weird Keyboards

I have a friend who tested that at a show. They said it looked cool but HATED IT. First because there is no real keys typing is hard - you don't feel a key below you. Plus because its flat you can image the pain in the wrists after a short time of typing.

OK my kids are gamers so two of them have red glowing computers (see kid ONE, kid TWO) and kid THREE glows green. The red kids have matching gaming glowing keyboards

there cool you can type in the dark but after a while they bother my wrists so no thanks but they love them. Their friends think they are cool too.
