It’s not just a keyboard, it’s the whole computer. A keyboard with the computer built in and an 800×480 touchscreen display/trackpad on the right.
I had two initial thoughts when I saw this thing on Engadget.
First, there’s going to be a lot of strained necks. This is absolutely not ergo-friendly whatsoever. Cool, yes, but not ergonomically sound.
Second, I immediately thought, "Hey, this is reminiscent of the old Commodore 64!" Several comment posters on the link above said the exact same thing.
This computer is not available for purchase yet, but most likely soon will be. Yes, it will have XP on it.
I find it interesting that when it comes to computers, history repeats itself often. The Commodore 64 to this day is the best-selling computer of all time. The Eee Keyboard essentially goes back to that winning formula Commodore had, that being a small, low-priced, feature-rich, easy-to-use computer.
Will the Eee Keyboard sell as much as the Commodore did? I doubt it.
But I do admit I’d really like to own one. More so than a traditional laptop.
