Thread: Steering Wheel Thumb Keyboard

It would be kinda cool to have something like THIS but wireless so that you don't wrap the damn wires around the column when you turn the corner. You could either mount it ON the face of the wheel (if you're willing to live without the airbag) or into the face of the wheel. I think that'd actually be pretty cool. And he's right, I can't remember the number of times I've wanted to type in an address (usually while sittin at a red light or before pullin outta the parkin space) without havin to reach over to the damn keyboard. It'd be much easier if the damn thing were right in front of me.

With one of those it wouldn't have to be some big production to input an address, like 2 to 5 seconds to enter it on yer steering wheel.

I know there was one that's usb (not wireless dammit) that I've seen in a recent post (last couple months) but I couldn't find it with a cursory search.

It would be cool if someone would come up with a usb device that converts a non-wireless item into wireless...plug your usb (whatever) into this wireless adapter and it transmits the inputs to the reciever which is plugged into the usb port of your computer.

Or for all I know, that already exists.

OK. This got me kind of curious. The answer I finally came to was...THIS

It's one of those one-handed shift-key kinda keyboards where for half the letters you have to hit a shift-key of some sort to get em (think key-combinations). The beauty of this unit is that it's bluetooth and (from the reviewers) fairly easy to set up.

Kinda 'spensive tho.
