Brando's Wireless Flexible Keyboard

You probably heard of all kinds of weird keyboards. Not too long ago, people got really excited about the LED illuminated keyboard (a device that beams the image of a computer keyboard onto the tabletop). Unfortunately, the laser keyboard can't allow you to feel the keys and your fingers actually
block the light.

So, maybe we should forget pushing virtual buttons and start...folding and unfolding keyboards. Wireless Multimedia Flexible Keyboard! How does that sound? Imagine this. You come from work and start unfolding stuff like your couch blanket, your bedroom quilt and of course, your flexible keyboard. Yeah, the "folding-unfolding factor" could save you a little bit of space when you're having guests or throwing a party in your tiny apartment.

But unless you're really tiny and you sleep in a mini-bed, I can't see how this flexible keyboad coud be better than a "normal" one. Oh, ok, it's waterproof, portable, storable and easy to pack. I get it. So, this means you can take it anywhere, even into your bath tub. Riiight. No, it doesn't have a built-in showside for your Vista, so better bring your 24"-inch LCD along with you. And I highly doubt that the AAA battery will shock you while you're taking this underwater.

Here are some specs:

-2.4 Ghz Radio Frequency wireless transmission technology
-Maximum transmission distance: 30 ft (approx)
-Well-arranged 104 keys
-18 keys for multimedia function
-Dust-proof and water-resistant
-Size: 435x145 cm
-Weight: 273 g

The Brando Flexible Keyboard is yours for $29. If you do buy this, your PC mouse will probably use it more than you will. This pseudo-blanket will surely keep "him" warm at night.

it is an expensive product for something you can make by yourself for almost no cost.
