AboutThe 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
(except for the usb adapter itself, which is mounted in the rear of the machine).
So the end result is a retro-style USB keyboard that not only looks great,
but feels great to use.
iPhone apps that demonstrate/evoke presence:
see current apps on my itouch and search for "Vibrating Massager literally
turns your iPhone into a feel-good massager. (Yep, there's an app for that!)"
