New water resistant keyboard from Genius announced

Inspan Infotech, one of the IT distribution companies for motherboards and hardware components, has announced the new SlimStar 110 Water Resistant Keyboard from Genius. The SlimStar 110 keyboard from Genius is an elegant black finish keyboard designed for Windows Vista. The silent keycap structure provides a good tactile feedback (just like a notebook) and low noise comfort during typing. SlimStar 110 is designed to be protected against accidental spills during work, so a spill here and there won’t render the keys on your keyboard useless. However, the keyboard has also been designed keeping comfort in mind.

Water resistant keyboards make for great companions if you’re one of those clumsy types. We’ve often had tea or coffee spill over our keyboard followed by a frantic search for a napkin along with praying that the keys are working properly. To think of it, water resistance as a default would be a nice feature to have in all kinds of keyboards. We’ve seen them on phones, like the Active and the DEFY+ we reviewed earlier, we’ve seen them on watches, and we’d definitely not complain if they would feature on other electronic devices as well.
