How to Clean Your Keyboard After a Spill December 6, 2007
Mahalo Daily teaches you how to clean your keyboard after you have spilled coffee, shoe polish or even syrup on it. There's another option as well - buy a new keyboard. They aren't expensive.
jkOntheRun has a post about an interesting fabric keyboard design that doubles as a case.
Glyn Evans of Pocket PC Solutions just contacted me with some photos of a concept keyboard he is using from Eleksen who pioneered the fabric keyboard design. This concept keyboard is interesting as it doubles as a case for the UMPC, in Glyn’s case a TabletKiosk eo. According to Glyn this keyboard gives an audible click when a key is pressed and is very usable on a daily basis. Here are a couple of photos of the concept keyboard, the first showing the eo nestled in the case part of the keyboard and the second showing the keyboard deployed for use.
It seems like the fabric keyboards would be too soft to feel write when you typed but some companies apparently are pushing forward with the idea. It would be easy to transport a keyboard that can be folded or be rolled up. jkOntheRun has more information about fabric keybords in this post.
