CES 2009: asus eee keyboard pc

CES 2009: asus eee keyboard pc



computers get smaller and smaller every year. last year’s CES featured a number of stripped
down net-books like the asus eee pc. these tiny laptops shrunk things dow2n even further,
but now asus has returned to CES 2009 with the eee keyboard, a pc in a keyboard. the new
design features a thin and slick looking keyboard that would compliment any pc. however this
keyboard doesn’t need a computer tower of monitor since it is completely self-contained. to the
right of the keyboard is a small screen about the size of the iphone. the back features all the
necessary ports and plugs and a built in battery allows it to be portable. while the computer is
only a prototype at this point, it is a novel way to look at the future of mini computing.

Whole unit in a keyboard ? :) That's remind me an old times with Atari and Commodore Amiga :) So...that idea isn't new :P But in my opinion it's nice :)

Not as nice as the Dana(?), though more powerful. And looking over to the right would give me a crick in the neck. Not that I'd throw it away if I saw it at a yard sale for .

A split keyboard layout with the screen in the center would seem more comfortable to use.

I SAY TAKE THE SCREEN OUT COMPLETELY AND ADD A PROJECTOR. THEY MAKE THEM SO SMALL NOW THEY CAN FIT IN CELL PHONES SO THERE IS NO REASON WHY IT CANT FIT IN THAT. THEN ALL YOU NEED IS A WALL!
