The iTablet Thumb Keyboard is being marketed as an paraphernalia for Android and iOS cellphones, and is to iPad. It might be improved to concentration on its aptitude to offshoot up to the Xbox 360 or media-center PC, though, as it is roughly spectacularly unsuitable to mobile devices.
The keypad is identical in form to a console gamepad. You grip it in two hands and sort on the QWERTY ‘board with two thumbs, as God expected (if God had been a young person spooky with texting). Round the back is a trackpad that you torment with your fingers, and on top of that are the left and correct rodent buttons. A function and caps-lock symbol on the front row total the lineup.
The Thumb Keyboard moreover has backlit keys and communicates around Bluetooth.
But even the paramount hater of on-screen keyboards would't wish to use this. First, you have to column your phone up someplace you can see the screen. Then you must be return and onward between typing and heartwarming the shade (the trackpad submit clearly can't be sent to a phone that lacks a rodent pointer). This is bad sufficient using an iPad at a table with a proper mount and keyboard. Add in a device you have to grip and it becomes a nightmare.
For a media-center PC, though, it looks perfect, hardly bigger than a periodic remote and easy to only toss onto the seat when you're done. The selling certain is ass-backwards on this one.
Should you require a Thumb Keyboard, you can have a for 80, or a silly $131. Available now.
