Wireless keyboards are perfect to use with your HTPC setup, but the livingoom is a messy place full of dangers for any keyboard. There’s spilled drinks, the danger of leaving your keyboard on the couch and having someone sit on it, etc.

Well, this rollable Bluetooth keyboard should make those problems a thing of the past. It comes fresh from the FCC in red or pink and is made of a rubbery material. It won’t break in half if you sit on it and it is safe from spills. It’s also super portable.

We have no idea why someone would mod a new wireless keyboard into the old looking one you see above. It must be a sickness or a dutch thing since this was created by a Dutch guy.

He took a Logitech Wireless Wii keyboard apart, mapped the key codes and did some soldering to make it all happen. But why? I guess I’m just not all that nostalgic about old keyboards. What do you guys think? Do you prefer this, or a new keyboard?

That’s right, $300. That’s a lot of money to pay for no guarantee that it will be a good keyboard. If any of you have a spare $300 to gamble on this thing, let us know how badly your hands are cramping up while you write us.

It’s a historical fact that Pirates don’t have a lot to say. They communicate mostly with scowls and grunts. When they do have to say something while sailing the high seas, plundering booty and hunting for treasures, it’s usually just “Arrrrr”.

So a Pirate’s keyboard keeps things simple with just the basic essential pirate keys. Arrrrrr. Avast. Even this keyboard, simple as it is, is hard to operate with a hook hand.

I can tell you as a person who types all day that a good keyboard can make all the difference in your productivity. A bad keyboard slows you down and makes you inaccurate. One of the coolest and most liked keyboards for heavy-duty typists out there is the Das Keyboard.
