Logitech is launching an innovative keyboard – still the best input device for emails and other messages, the company said. Come this December, Logitech will begin offering the K750, not only wireless but also a solar-powered keyboard.
Panels running the length of the keyboard absorb sunlight but even indoor light will do, the company says, eliminating the need for batteries, power bricks and charging cables.
The K750 is a third of an inch thick, has rounded edges and a black-on-black design with lit-from-behind, laser-etched keys that are said to curve in to support one’s fingertips and help guide them to the right keys. An included solar power meter application lets users see the keyboard’s battery level at a glance and alerts them when a recharge is in order.
The K750 uses 2.4GHz wireless connectivity which, according to Logitech, connects with “virtually no delays or dropouts” – as well as 128-bit AES encryption to keep things secure. It connects to devices using a unifying receiver, approximately the size of a penny, which Logitech recommends setting up and forgetting about. The unit can be left in a laptop and users can add keyboards and mice as they are needed – up to six devices maximum.
Bad news for Mac fans, though. In addition to a light source, the only other thing the Logitech Wireless Solar Keyboard K750 requires is a Windows XP, Windows Vista or Windows 7 operating system.
Suggested pricing is £69.99 and it will go on sale in Britain and Europe in December.
