Concept
Not so long ago, I was surprised, noted that began to use the mouse much more fewer – my friends and colleagues noticed the same thing.
As a result, I made a concept keyboard, based on Apple Aluminium Keyboard, for use with any desktop computers.
Description:
— Full size keyboard with 85 (U.S. and ISO) keys, including 19 function keys, 4 arrow keys (in the form of an inverted «T»)
— Multi-Touch trackpad 6″ (ideally in glass) for precise cursor control; support two finger scrolling, zoom, rotate, scroll through, single and double touch, gestures, using three or four fingers, and dragging the mouse.
— USB-Hub in the two ports
But there’re several difficulties:
— Multi-Touch trackpad can significantly increase the cost of
— Difficult to set the keyboard on the WIN/LINUX machines because of the need to install drivers
— It will not be interesting to the audience, likes playing in shooters
Qualities:
This combination of full-size keyboard and trackpad will help to substantially free up space on the desktop, accelerate the work.
How would you have reacted to this device, if it’ll be released by Apple? ;)
