If you cast your mind back to 2009 , you might come back the Palm Pre had an edge so precipitous , it was able-bodied to cut through cheeseflower . Measuring just half a millimetre thick , the humanity ’s thin keyboard — made by British companionship CSR in partnership with Atmel and CIT — should be able to take on a bratwurst , sure as shooting . I put my IFA lunch to the test .

In case you drop the tidings when CSR revealed its keyboard , the flexible touching port has been made potential thanks to Cambridge - establish CIT ’s inkjet - printed fuzz - on - charge card instauration , which can change state any area into a touch - raw Earth’s surface . My brief play with it showed that while I made a few typos , it had about the same level of accuracy as typing on a normal iPad or Android tablet ’s on - blind keyboard .
link to a tablet or laptop via Bluetooth , the bombardment life sentence is currently around 7 – 8 hours , though it ’s possible to boost the battery via USB when connected to a pad of paper ( or other power source ) .
However much we may want it built into a tab covert or as a stand - alone gimmick , we ’ve got some hold back to do — CSR figures it wo n’t be commercially uncommitted until Christmas 2014 . In the meantime , I ’m going to keep my eyes on this troupe , to see how else they utilise this technology — wearable interface , anyone ?
last , if anyone ’s going hungry , there ’s a passably - mangled bratwurst lurking in a bin near CSR ’s IFA stand . I would n’t note it to the company reps if I were you , though .
