Kanex proposes a means of typing on all Apple devices, be it iPads, iPhones or Macs-- the Multi-Sync, a full-size keyboard customers can share with one USB and up to 3 Bluetooth devices.

Looking fairly similar to an Apple wireless keyboard, the Multi-Sync features keys (specifically F1-4) allowing one to easily switch between connected devices. It also replaces the Fn button with an iDevice Home button, and shifts the search key to below the right-hand shift.

Customers asking for more, ahem, "organic" accessories to go with their PCs might be interested in the Oreé Touch Slab, a Magic Trackpad-style touchpad made out of wood.

Qualcomm made an unexpected splash at IFA 2013 when it revealed the Toq-- a Galaxy Gear/SmartWatch 2 rival with an even slimmer display within a similar adjustable rubber wristband.

While ultimately similar to most other takes on the smartwatch format, Qualcomm claims the Toq has a couple of unique selling points. First is the display, an always-on Mirasol “interferometric modulator display” that supposedly “leverages the light around it so you can see your screen anywhere, even in bright sunlight."

According to the company the display sips so very little power it not only allows for "days" for battery life, it does not even need an on/off button.

Wacom combines touch-based gestures with stylus input and announces the Bamboo Pad-- a small, slim device handling both multitouch and pressure-sensitive stylus control.

"For people who would love to add a personal signature, a drawing or some handwritten comments to their documents, this new product offers the wonderful feel of a pressure-sensitive Wacom stylus," the company claims.

Available in wired (USB) and wireless options, the Bamboo Pad is compatible with both Mac and Windows PCs, ships Continue reading...
