Roll up, Roll up!
 
My cousin just bought me a roll up keyboard, something I've wanted for a long time. The buttons work fine, albeit with a bit more force, but the trouble is the space bar takes a few presses to work every now and then. This is probably a snowball's chance in hell but anybody have any tips for using these successfully?

What is the point of a roll up keyboard? Sounds like a bit of a lame novelty or something.

A fruit rollup keyboard?

Posher778 09-19-2009 08:54 PM
That's a stupid idea... Just use a regular keyboard.

ferretchucker 09-20-2009 03:19 AM
Well, in short, yeh. It is just a novelty. It's main benefits are the fact that it lights up and is immune to crumbs and drinks spillages.

Yeah, and it's perfect for the Mystery Tour, too. :rolleyes::eek:

And if I ever become a hacker, it might be a useful tool. :D

Till you can't push the buttons hard enough :D

Have you managed to wreck a few keyboards spilling drinks and stuff? If so then its probably a great idea.

Hah- that's usually when I need a new keyboard- after I've spilled something on it.

I've thankfully dodged that bullet. I wonder if there's any brands set up to cater for people that are prone to do that :)

Never ruined any outright but I've slowly killed a few with drinks and crumbs.

I spill coke all over my keyboard all the time. as far as I can tell my keyboard is immune too. :cool:

edit: I think I just have power over all things liquid, I dropped my cell in the pool and it worked fine after. liquid knows not to fuck with me.

Yeah, great idea. Or maybe just setting the drink somewhere else? :)
