There are quite a few specialized keyboards released in last few months such as Logitech gaming keyboard G15 and highly portable keyboards such as Eee keyboard which have performed quite well in the market. A little known company, quirky recently unveiled its latest keyboard which has a unique design that effectively encloses your keyboard when not in use and helps protecting it from dust and other factors that can affect its performance.
There are a few interesting aspects that you must notice about the Space Bar such as additional USB ports that are provided on both sides of the keyboard. The keyboard-attached USB ports are very helpful in providing access to different multimedia devices such as iPod, iPhone or your common mobile phone. Synchronizing your multimedia files becomes a lot easier when you don’t have to stretch your connectivity cable to PC-bound USB slot. You can just slide in the cable to the USB port that is present right on your keyboard for quick and easy access. The keyboard cover is designed to protect it when not in use. You can simply slide it in where it gets locked to safety.
The keyboard design is also very impressive. Its key-layout is designed in a way that it would seem to be inspired from layout of MacBook’s keyboard. The keys are very well designed and look good in bright light. The keyboard is typing-friendly and one can expect very good response from the keyboard for typing. Even if the keyboard is not specifically designed for gaming, one can be comfortable while gaming with this keyboard as the keys are pretty solid and don’t make much noise when clicked repetitively.
The Space Bar is now up for pre-sale at their official website for just $42. We can expect to get our hands on this sleek looking keyboard as early as next month if everything happens in order. With a slide-in protective cover and six extra USB ports, the Space Bar is a pretty good deal at $42. The keyboard is also extremely durable and is made of high performance aluminum which is light and rigid. The sound made when clicking aluminum keys is really pleasant compared to what we hear after pressing our usual keyboards’ hard plastic keys.
