Keyboards
The Maglev Keyboard uses magnetism in the keys. Instead of having the rubber cups found on regular laptop keyboards, Darfon’s keyboard has magnets that push the keys back up. This tech allows the Maglev Keyboard to be made even slimmer than other regular laptop keyboards.The keyboard is able to endure 15 million strokes, compared to just 10 million strokes for competing products. According to Darfon, notebooks packing such Maglev Keyboards will be available in the second half of the year, although it’s not clear yet what OEMs have already picked up this particular keyboard concept. Even though the laptop might be thinner and lighter, does it affect its durability? That is something that needs to be mentioned because people like the lighter laptops so that they can carry them around when they are working on some software development. It would not be productive if the laptop breaks more often. What do you think about the keyboard?

If there is not that much different between the number of keys, I would rather be able to carry the laptop around while doing some web development. I do not like constantly sitting at the desk.
ReplyDeleteI actually do not mind using the virtual keyboards that get projected on a surface. It is just as efficient when writing web applications.
ReplyDeleteSometime it is even easier to write mobile applications on a mobile device. I guess it depends on what you are more comfortable with.
ReplyDeleteKeyboards are interchangeable. Make sure that you have the right software and cloud services to do your work.
