Flexible Keyboard

Filed in archive Products on December 13, 2005



Eleksen - i wrote about them before - will introduce a new keyboard at the 2006 Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas and should list for around $100.

The fabric keyboard that's designed to work with blue-tooth enabled smart phones and PDAs. About as thick as a quarter and attached to a Bluetooth transmitter, the full-size QWERTY keyboard offers printed keys and can be rolled up or squished into a ball and, Eleksen promises, holds up to the 10-million-key-press-test.

Eleksen company executives said the washable fabric (the controller needs to be detached first) can also withstand extreme pressure; they've rolled a car over it without any ill effects. What's next? Device controls on handbags, briefcases, backpacks and maybe, if the technology is coupled with a flexible display, the first rollable laptop. Stay tuned.
