Dear diary,
Well, my Penna Keyboard by www Elretron com arrived tonight from Seoul, Republic of Korea via www Indiegogo com. This VERY lightweight keyboard is a retro design with Bluetooth capability for up to five devices. It works only for iOS and Windows. I wanted it to work for Android but it doesn’t.
The body is Matt Black colored. The black body was the first to ship as scheduled in December 2017, while the other colors, such as Pure White, Baby Pink, Olive Green, and Wood, which is dark brown in color, of course, may be delivered next month January 2018.
The keycaps are white and chrome. The other option is the Diamond 4-AXIS Keycaps, which are also white all around but without the shiny raised feature of the chrome version. I chose the shiny ones.
The switch is CHERRY BLUE, which for me was the most clickety noise maker. There were other switches, such red. I couldn’t find the other types of switches offered on the www Indiegogo com webpage.
I wanted the 10-key from the other company but I guess I’ll have to be happy with my first selection. Maybe, I can order the other kind later and this one for the meantime.
The slot holds the tablet and it’s a nice substitute to a full personal computer. It doesn’t have the shortcut feature found on the Apple Magic Keyboard, which was way too flat and annoying.
I couldn’t type fast and was struggling to get my blogging thoughts penned in a timely manner. So that piece of crap is gonna be my secondary backup keyboard for sheets. This unit runs on two AA batteries, though.
Sincerely,
FLYNN B.
