CES 2010: FlipCase lets you type on the go

Posted by | 01/08/2010 | 4 Comments

flipcaseWalked past their booth and couldn’t resist hearing their pitch. Yes, it reminds me of a food vendor at a sporting event handing out ‘dogs and pretzels from trays strapped to their bodies, but I saw plenty of guys here trying to work while standing with laptops unfolded. Obviously, there’s a need for this product. Even for me, working from a Tablet PC, I wouldn’t mind having a place for my writing space. Just the bit I did yesterday, blogging and taking notes, was wearing me down.

    Teachers could use it if they have a wireless projector…not likely with our budgets :-)

    These are a great “brand X” for explaining why people need slate tablets.

    Funny…..I have sketches of how I was going to build one of these for in-the-field data collection.

    Now I can just buy it.

    I wonder if they have it for different laptop size and any extrafinctionality (built in extra battery?)? Make sense though…
