SmartFish Engage Keyboard Design with ErgoMotion System

Engage Keyboard from Smartfish has been designed to prevent repetitive stress injury. Based on their studies, the movements of the user while typing can cause pain and stress when it’s not appropriate. Engage keyboard has been designed with ErgoMotion to increase the flexibility and alleviating pain in the user’s typing experience. Instead of changing the key layouts, Engage keyboard features a patented ErgoMotion system that allows user to adjust the position of the keyboard’s two halves and its tilt. The adjustment follows user’s natural hand motions when typing. I hope they have lock mechanism, because I won’t like it when my keyboard moving while I type.

The funny USB memory stick is inspired by Japanese revolving lantern, offering an excellent and unique aesthetic with its transparent glass body and all the convenient functionalities. Inside the glass, the memory stick shows different colored lightings for different data. For example, pink color demonstrates images, green for movies, blue for documents and no light means there is no data inside the stick. To make the fun more interesting, these lights moves whenever users shake the device. The desktop icon has also been customized to synchronize with the operating system, making it more succinct.

Lacie S2.0 is not just your traditional “box” shaped hard drive, it offers modern design with its clean and soft lines that break the tradition of plain square box external hard drive’s body.

You can use this gadget as a solo product, but the stackablefeature offers great solution for data partition.

Swiftpoint Mouse Hands-on Review

Still remember about Swiftpoint mouse we talked about before? Finally I got the chance to review this cool device.

Though it was recommended to charge it fully before using, I couldn’t resist myself tearing the box and jump on my laptop with it. Inside the box, you’ll find Swiftpoint mouse, USB receiver/charger, parking accessory, and a user guide. The Rapid Charge feature of the mouse was quite impressive which let me use it for more than an hour by charging it only few minutes. That one hour of use resulted cramp on my hand due to the unusual size, shape and working process I guess, that disappeared with further use later on, giving me a feel that this mouse is actually meant for using on the go. Though the mouse is smaller than those we see around, it’s not too small to hold it as a pen, gliding easily on the laptop palm rest. However, as 10″ laptop user, I have difficulty using this mouse on the palm rest due to the lack of sufficient space.



No driver required to use the mouse, the plug-and-play simplicity enables the mouse to be operated quickly on any operating system. The sensor of the mouse is so powerful to enable precise and accurate operation. Scrolling over documents is super easy and stylish, just I had to tilt the mouse and slide the scroll wheel. Moreover, the Slide Scroll feature of the mouse enabled page through scrolling and zooming to get a closer look. The inclusion of Smart Touch feature made it energy efficient by stopping the movement of the mouse pointer when the finger grip doesn’t detect my finger on it. The customizable up direction is another feature that made me amazed which enabled me changing the up direction of the pointer according to my need.
