Optimus Keypad

Optimus Pultius is a Leaner, Meaner, 15-key LED Pad

Fresh from the Optimus blog is the Optimus Pultius which shrinks the Optimus Maximus down to 15 keys, and is meant as an add-on to your existing keyboard setup. It's expected to be available at the end of 2008 or early 2009. No word on pricing, but hopefully a 30 year mortgage won't be a requirement. [Optimus Blog]

Numeric Keypad Chairs Provide Computational Comfort

These numeric keypad chairs are pretty amazing in a nerd chic sort of way. If you tried cramming these into your 700-square-foot bachelor pad, you'd look like the biggest tool alive. But in a place with a million square feet and that white, minimalist vibe, they'd be pretty amazing. These appear to be concepts, but the obscure Japanese site they came from makes it hard to tell.

Mouse-Calculator-Numeric Keypad Mashup is From Canon, Confusingly

Forget DSLRs: Canon has a new gizmo for us. The "industry's first" mouse with a calculator and numeric keypad is a 1000dpi optical USB mouse that flips open to a full keypad and 10-digit LCD screen. And yes, you read that correctly: the LS-100TKM is from Canon, not Brando. Strange... but if you're an accounting type who needs a calculator and keypad for your notebook, this might be the ticket. Available in Japan at first for around $32, in early July. [Impress]

TAD Customizable Finger Mod for Better Touchscreen ... Touching

The TAD gadget is designed to help fat-fingered folks (or just plain clumsy typists, like me) who have trouble with touchscreens or tiny buttons on cellphones. It's simply a plastic ring with a customizable "nubbin" for better contact than your fingertip offers— you can choose rounded for buttons and pointy for touchscreens. The makers claim better accuracy, reduced wear on keypads and even that it protects long nails. My wife's found that long nails are perfect for a Chumby touchscreen, but what the heck. Available in six colors and sizes up to 0.7-inches for $6. [Reghardware]

Takumi Calculator Features Computer Style Keypad and USB Connectivity

When it comes to pressing buttons, nothing beats the sweet tactile feedback a computer keyboard can provide. Now you can experience the same joy whist crunching numbers on the go. As you can see, the Takumi calculator features a computer style keypad, but it is also interesting to note that it can connect to your PC via USB and function as a traditional numerical keypad —which could be extremely useful to laptop owners. Available for around $46 [Product site via TFTS]

ZenZui: Microsoft's New Web Navigation Interface For Phones

Probably thought out by some interior designer with one too many sake shots inside him, ZenZui is both the name of a new Microsoft-backed startup and a new interface for phones designed to "transform how people engage, consume and interact with Web content through a revolutionary mobile user experience and information ecosystem."
