iPad USB Typewriter [Video]
So you’re looking for cool iPad accessories. You already have a case, a dock, some additional cables. Perhaps you should consider a USB Typewriter now.
“The USBTypewriter is a new and groundbreaking innovation in the field of obsolescence. Lovers of the look, feel, and quality of old fashioned manual typewriters can now use them as keyboards for any USB-capable computer, such as a PC, Mac, or even iPad! The modification is easy to install, it involves no messy wiring, and does not change the outward appearance of the typewriter. So the end result is a retro-style USB keyboard that not only looks great, but feels great to use.”
Available at $400 - $500 here (it’s handmade, meaning that each model is different), or at $75 as DIY kit. Check out the promo video after the break.
