Logitech describes their new keyboard - the Cordless Desktop Wave - as the new shape of comfort in desktops. Other revolutionary keyboards which promised users greater comfort had one major stumbling block, the keyboarder had to adjust his typing style. Since typing is an intuitive automatic process, this greatly frustrated keyboarders - the revolutionary keyboards required them to think where they were placing their fingers.
Logitech manages to make a comfortable keyboard that does not require the keyboarder to change their typing style. Logitech adds 3 elements to the Cordless Desktop Wave to accomplish this. The first element is a wave keyframe design, and a U-shaped constant curve and contoured, cushioned palm rest. The Cordless Desktop Wave guides the keyboarder’s hands and cradles their fingers. This creates a comfortable typing experience encouraging relaxed finger positioning for long typing sessions. Logitech designed their Cordless Desktop Wave to address the problem of different hand shapes. A gradual wave shaped contour cradles fingers with a shape that supports their actual individual length. The keys on the Cordless Desktop Wave are highest at the A and Enter keys since they are normally hit by the little fingers. Moving inward, the keys decrease in height until reaching the D and K keys. These keys are normally reached by the middle fingers. The keys move up to accommodate the pointer fingers in reaching the G and H keys. 4 mm separates the keyboard’s peaks and troughs. The wave design helps eliminate poor hand and arm positioning. The Cordless Desktop Wave keyboard has a 5-degree curve that allows keyboarders’ hands to open up naturally instead of having to bend the wrist. Logitech strives to reduce the incidents of Carpels Tunnels Disease with this feature. Even the space bar has its height adjusted so that it meets the fingers. This makes it easier to hit like the rest of the keys on the Cordless Desktop Wave. A comfortably designed mouse complements Logitech’s Wave keyboard. The mouse features pixel precise laser tracking and a rubber grip. Logitech designed the Cordless Desktop Wave keyboard and mouse with extended battery life. The battery can last up to 15 months for the keyboard and 6 months for the mouse. LED indicators inform you when the batteries are running low. Logitech’s new Cordless Desktop Wave keyboard will be a delight to computer users everywhere. Although not as cool as a flexible keyboard, Logitech’s new keyboard will soothe fingers on those long typing days.
