Pen-to-PC in a whole new way

Zpen

For those who are busy, outgoing and are often in meetings, using your laptop (however small) is often not very practical so you end up taking notes through the old fashioned, and lot cheaper method, the pen. However not only does that hurt your hand after a while, but you get a result that you cant search, send off instantly, or mess around with on Word. In fact you often end up re-typing it anyway to make it usable which is frustratingly time consuming, and makes you wish there was a better solution.

Bluetooth laser virtual keyboard

by XXJulie Salickram on Apr 18, 2006 at 11:20 PM

Here’s one that had me saying “Ohhhh, cool!” 

I have to give credit to ThinkGeek for bringing this one to my attention (if you go to their site, also check out the caffeine molecule T-shirt too – very cool – very geeky – good stuff).  The very futuristic Bluetooth Laser Virtual Keyboard allows you to project a functioning keyboard onto any flat surface and click away (the actual tippity-tap sounds included) using your blue tooth enables PDA or cellphone, much like the one we showed you back in January but now you can get it too. Check out the features and product pricing and availability.

Product Features:
  • Connects to PDAs Smartphones and Computers using Bluetooth
  • Projects a full size keyboard onto any flat surface
  • Allows the convenience of regular keyboard typing in a tiny form factor
  • Rechargeable battery lasts for 120 minutes of continuous typing
  • Tiny size only 3.5 inches high
  • Compatible with Palm OS 5, PocketPC 2003, Windows Smartphone, Symbian OS, and Windows 2000/XP. Limited Mac OSX Support. Click here for compatibility details and product specifications

This super-cool, impress-your-friends, seems-like-a-trick-but-is- oh-so-real gadget is $179.99 and is currently on back order, though Think Geek says orders placed now should ship out by the end of April.
