The 2014 International CES is underway. The expo floor doesn't open for another day, and the crowds and the spectacle haven't even hit full strength yet. But we've gotten an early peek at some of the year's newest gear.
TREWGrip
This bizarre looking keyboard is
TREWGrip, a device-agnostic, ergonomic keyboard and mouse. Imagine a QWERTY keyboard, split in half, each half rotated outward 90 degrees, and your mobile device docked in the center. Your hands are in the same general position as always, they're just oriented slightly differently. The design is supposed to let you more comfortably and efficiently type, but based on my limited time handling TREWGrip, I suspect there’s a bit of a learning curve.
It connects to your device via Bluetooth and has an integrated gyroscope so the device doubles as a mouse (for a desktop PC or smart TV). TREWGrip should land for an estimated $250 (yikes!) in the latter half of this year.
