Compact Keyboards from DSI and Zippy!

We are pleased to expand our range of compact keyboards with the addition of two new models from DSI.  The SMK-85 is a ivory colored compact keyboard with 85 full size keys (i.e. triple width shift key, double width tab and caps lock keys).

The DFK-65U is a super compact 65 key keyboard with a super-small footprint of 10.2" x 4.7" x 1.2", making it ideal for space constrained environments (most notably this keyboard has a smaller depth than most currently available.

The EL-610 from Zippy is a compact 91 key keyboard which is uses lights under translucent keycaps to provide illumination of all the keys in even the darkest of workstations.

For more information on these products, see our Keyboards - Small Footprint category in our Online Catalog.

Several new products from Adesso...

We are pleased to announce we now are a fully authorized distributor for Adesso, and this month have added the following Adesso products to our product lineup:

The popular and affordable Adesso Wintouch keyboard is now available in black - giving this keyboard a much more modern and sleeker look. The dimensions and specifications are the same, and the same high quality Cirque touchpad is embedded in the keyboard.

Work Comfort pictured with laptopThe TruForm line now offers two more inexpensive options.  The MCK-208 3D Truform (pictured at left) is identical to the PCK-308T except that it does not include a touchpad.  It offers the same splay, tenting and wrist rest, with standard 105 key layout. There are 2 spacebars (one on each section of the keyboard).

The EKB-804Pro (pictured at right) is the most affordable of this series.  It has only a splay (and no tent) and is often referred to as the Truform 2D (2 dimensional). The space bar is contiguous on this model, and there are 22 hot keys for fast access to internet and multimedia controls.  This keyboard is slightly smaller than the other models, being only 19.5" wide (still larger than a standard 18" conventional keyboard).

For more information on these products, see several of our Keyboard categories in our Online Catalog.

Looking for fixed split keyboard with removable wrist rest? Look no further...

Work Comfort pictured with laptopMany of our clients have expressed the need for a fixed split keyboard with a removable wrist rest to use with the Contour Design RollerMouse Station. We are pleased to offer a keyboard which offers this feature and is ideal for use with the RollerMouse.

The ErgoDetach keyboard has a natural posture split and works great with the Rollermouse, because the spacebar fits next to the rollerbar to keep the hands in the optimal work zone.

For more information on this product, see our Keyboards - Fixed Split/Angle category in our Online Catalog.

Work Comfort pictured with laptopKensington's Orbit Trackball is now Optical!

We have the new Kensington Orbit Optical Trackball in stock. Control your cursor with a simple touch of the finger!  The highly accurate Orbit Optical is as easy to use as a regular mouse, but it stays in one place saving you valuable desk space.  The precise optical tracking mechanism using DiamondEye technology is also resistant to dust, reducing the need for regular trackball cleaning. This product is USB with a PS/2 adapter, and works with both Macs and PCs.

For more information on this product, see our Mice - Trackball category in our Online Catalog.

Foxbay Industries now offers a Retractable Mousing / Writing Platform, the RMP.  This unit attaches to the underside of a desktop surface or keyboard tray, and can easily be stored when not in use.  The mounting area is 19" x 10.5", and the usable mousing / writing surface is 8.5" x 8.5".  The unit is composed of a metal mounting bracket with a vinyl-coated MDF board, and comes with a limited lifetime warranty.
