Who does not want to be ‘slim and trim.’ Well, it is not just us humans who are in the league. Most of the devices today also want to attain the beautiful ‘size zero’ image, Microsoft has now announced its thinnest mobile keyboard ever, the Bluetooth Mobile Keyboard 6000.
This keyboard is designed in such a way that it does not sacrifice in style inspite of being sleek. Along with a curved layout, it includes a portable Bluetooth number pad that will ensure people stay productive no matter where they are.
“The design tenets of compact, clean and refined really set the stage for the success of the keyboard,†said Chris Kujawski, industrial designer for Microsoft Hardware. “There is nothing extraneous about the design. We removed everything that didn’t fit with those ideas and ended up with something we’re really proud of — a compact, sophisticated keyboard that pairs perfectly with Bluetooth computers.â€
This keyboard is just a few millimeters thicker than any AAA size battery. In order for convenience, the 6000 tapers down towards the front. The curved design of the keyboard ensures more economic typing when compared to the straight keyboard layout. This layout also ensures a natural wrist posture with a slight 6 degree curve.
When one sits in front of a notebook or netbook they often feel the lack of a number pad. Thus this stand alone Bluetooth device can be used with the keyboard or by itself. It can be easily carried around with the carry case included.
This dainty device will be available in stores from next month for an estimated retail price of $89.95 for the keyboard and $44.95 for the Bluetooth Number Pad.
