Celio’s Redfly Mobile Dock is now available in Europe, soon to be available here in the U.S. (I think). This Redfly Mobile Dock basically allows you to use your smartphone sorta like your laptop, allowing you to connect an LCD monitor and keyboard.
While you might think this is redundant and why in the world would y
For those of you with some artistic skills, you might want to consider adding these rather wonderful “enhancements” to your crocs, add keyboard pieces!
I’ve seen such recycled artwork many times before, one of my co-workers used to do this as a side job and people would actually buy these.
I think these types of DIYs are great, plus you can spell out your favorite words.
Crocs: The subject of much pointless quibbling. I really don’t think it matters one way or the other — I wear them as slippers in the privacy of my own home, so
For those of you who have bought laptops/netbooks that don’t come with keyboard illumination, there’s a better way than simply attaching a reading LED light to your laptop/netbook (although that probably is the easiest way). You can actually hack your laptop/netbook to add an LED light near your webcam, all so you can control it with your keyboard for turning on/off.

Here’s some great news that the new Nokia N900 is based on Linux, similar to the new Palm Pre.
The new Nokia N900 comes with ARM Cortex-A8 processor, 1GB of application memory, 32GB of storage (expandable to 48GB with a MicroSD card), and a slide-out QWERTY keyboard.
That’s very similar to the Palm Pre, same processor but 4X more memory and 4X more storage. Plus, I have to say having a Mozilla browser is a definite plus. If it’s available anytime soon in the U.S., I will definitely be one of the first get this cool new phone.
FINALLY, Nokia gets on
Here’s a great way to add your own DIY NES arcade machine to your home, make one yourself!
Inside is an old PC and a 17″ LCD monitor. The back of the cabinet has two USB ports and two NES controller ports. You can connect regular, un-modded NES controllers and play with those or use the joystick and buttons on the control panel.
The front end is a simple VB program that auto loads when the PC boots. You never need to connect a mouse or keyboard to load your games. The VB
Though a concept, the glass keyboard would be very uncomfortable and hand-straining device we really don’t need.
Glassss surface inputting is the new hotness for almost every gadget maker today. From from the iPhone to Microsoft’s Surface technology, flat is where it’s at. Introducing the flattest full size QWERTY keyboard to date, “No-key Keyboard” by Kong Fanwen. Consisting of just a glass surface, camera and lighting, this alternative keyboard concept will use the latest motion capture technology to watch your fingers nervously sel
Here’s the most facinating find of the day, QWERTY-keyboard bike grips! Too bad, it looks like the keyboard is actually not QWERTY but spelling out Aaron Ross. (via wired)

I am still blogging on cheap IKEA desks and I really *WISH* I can get a bigger, more ergonomic desk real soon. While I am waiting to move to a new place for my new desk, you can check out this awesome DIY that shows you how to make custom, ergonomic computer desk from scratch. And IKEA? Forget IKEA, I’ve spent almost a thousand dollars on 3 coffee tables and they ALL broke after a year.
As a web developer, I spend LOTS of time at the keyboard. For me, having an ergonomic computer desk is an absolute essential. Recently, making the transition to working full time for
