Razer to release keyboard with Zune Dock
In a previous news story, we reported that Razer was coming out with the first keyboard to have an integrated iPod dock. Additionally, there were reports last August (before the Zune was announced) that Razer may have a keyboard with an integrated dock for the Zune.
Thanks to a tip sent to our tip line, Gadgetell has new information which points to Razer coming out with a keyboard that incorporates a dock for the Microsoft Zune. Right now, it appears that the keyboard is still in a developmental phase, but we will let you know of any more information regarding this product.
