Alright, you are looking at the Adesso AKB-220
completly flexible keyboard. |
| 00:00:12 |
00:00:14 |
This is going to be an awesome keyboard
if you're using it outdoors, |
| 00:00:15 |
00:00:17 |
I used to work in a car shop
where they had a computer |
| 00:00:17 |
00:00:19 |
and they used one of these,
I don't remember if it's the same brand |
| 00:00:20 |
00:00:21 |
but it's a flexible keyboard and it worked great
|
| 00:00:21 |
00:00:23 |
because it's completely waterproof, greaseproof,
|
| 00:00:23 |
00:00:27 |
smudge proof, pound on proof, you can pretty much
do about just anything with this. |
| 00:00:28 |
00:00:31 |
They are very, very difficult to break.
And Adesso pretty much claimed that |
| 00:00:32 |
00:00:35 |
on the website, so to me it's an invitation
to test. And we're going to test this thing. |
| 00:00:36 |
00:00:38 |
But before, let me tell you
little more about some of the places |
| 00:00:38 |
00:00:41 |
that are good to use this, boats first of all,
boats are great, it is waterproof, |
| 00:00:42 |
00:00:45 |
Anywhere where you're near water
if you're in a shop of any type, a machine shop, |
| 00:00:46 |
00:00:48 |
or anywhere you can be outdoors,
touching it with greasy hands |
| 00:00:48 |
00:00:51 |
or with gloves, whatever,
it's really useful for that. |
| 00:00:51 |
00:00:54 |
Again, it's also very portable
because you can pretty much wrap it up |
| 00:00:55 |
00:00:57 |
and just take it like this with you
you know, wrap the cord around it |
| 00:00:58 |
00:01:00 |
and take it with you and then,
wherever you want, you've got the keyboard |
| 00:01:01 |
00:01:03 |
right there and you know you don't have
to worry about it working or not. |
| 00:01:04 |
00:01:07 |
It usually always works.
Supposedly, it's pretty undestructable, |
| 00:01:08 |
00:01:11 |
so I'm going to beat on it a little bit.
That should do it. |
| 00:01:20 |
00:01:26 |
So, some pretty rigorous beating there.
And let's test to see if it still works. |
| 00:01:27 |
00:01:32 |
Try this puppy out.
Get a second for the drivers to kick in, |
| 00:01:32 |
00:01:37 |
my producer looks like I've just murdered
a baby. Alright, let's try this one more time. |
| 00:01:38 |
00:01:40 |
Hey, what do you know, it still works.
|
| 00:01:43 |
00:01:51 |
This is a pretty cool keyboard.
Except that I can't type. |
| 00:01:52 |
00:01:55 |
That's my problem,
don't blame the keyboard. |
| 00:01:55 |
00:02:01 |
This is not the keyboard's fault.
|
| 00:02:04 |
00:02:07 |
So, it still types.
Now let's move on to the next test. |
| 00:02:07 |
00:02:10 |
Let's try some water immersion, I just...
|
| 00:02:10 |
00:02:14 |
Someone left this container of water over here
I don't know why they would leave it there. |
| 00:02:14 |
00:02:17 |
But we're going to go ahead and shove
this thing in here and see what happens. |
| 00:02:19 |
00:02:24 |
Stick it in there, all the way down,
way, way down. |
| 00:02:26 |
00:02:28 |
And let's let it soak it for a minute.
I've got to use the restroom, |
| 00:02:29 |
00:02:31 |
so I'll be right back.
|
| 00:02:34 |
00:02:37 |
Alright, so it's been sitting in here
for about 3 or 4 minutes, |
| 00:02:37 |
00:02:39 |
we're going to go ahead
and pull it out of here. |
| 00:02:39 |
00:02:43 |
Oh, got kind of stuck.
I'll let it make a mess. |
| 00:02:44 |
00:02:49 |
So, as you can see, it's definitely very wet.
I'm going to splatter it down over here. |
| 00:02:49 |
00:02:53 |
And I'm going to plug it right back over in here,
little netbook. |
| 00:02:54 |
00:03:06 |
And let's see if it works.
Capture the drivers, "Does this thing still work?" |
| 00:03:08 |
00:03:14 |
Unbelievable, I can spell.
So it's amazing that it still works. |
| 00:03:14 |
00:03:16 |
It's actually pretty fantastic
and I think that's great. |
| 00:03:17 |
00:03:19 |
and it's just about everything
Bauer, you want to come and hit this thing? |
| 00:03:19 |
00:03:21 |
What is it?
-It's an indestructable, waterproof keyboard. |
| 00:03:23 |
00:03:25 |
Indestructable?
- Yeah, you can just beat on it, if you like. |
| 00:03:26 |
00:03:30 |
That's what I was doing
- That's more like it. |
| 00:03:31 |
00:03:33 |
That's what I was doing too.
-Is it still gong to work? What if I do like this? |
| 00:03:34 |
00:03:37 |
I did that too.
-Oh, you hear that? I think it's broken now. |
| 00:03:39 |
00:03:43 |
You actually registered all of that,
which is pretty funny. It's pretty cool. |
| 00:03:43 |
00:03:47 |
Thanks for your assistance, I appreciate it.
- Does it still work? |
| 00:03:48 |
00:03:52 |
Yup. Still working.
I think he killed my notebook though. |
| 00:03:57 |
00:04:00 |
This thing is awesome, completely undestructable,
you saw people step on it, |
| 00:04:01 |
00:04:04 |
we even dumped it in water.
I beat on it, Bauer beat on it, |
| 00:04:04 |
00:04:09 |
everyone stepped on it,
it's really great, again the Adesso AKB 220, |
