CKIE Product of the week – Jorno Portable Bluetooth Keyboard

For some reason, the world just wants to put more and more into your pocket. Just yesterday we saw this portable genius of a tool-kit fitting into a credit-card sized piece of steel, and now, the Jorno, which fits a tablet/smartphone dock AND complete QWERTY keyboard into a palm, and consequently pocket-sized device. I’ve always loved the touch of a tactile keyboard, and with the Jorno, I can have the joy of the clackety-clack of keys beneath my fingertips. The keyboard unfolds into a full sized layout that allows your fingers to comfortably dance from left to right. The rest of the Jorno transforms into a dock for your smart-device. All you have to do is pair the Jorno to your device and you can say goodbye to those disgusting on-screen touch-sensitive keyboards. Ugh!

The Jorno is so small, it barely occupies as much space as a secondary phone or a power-bank (it’s literally 0.67 inches thick when folded). Its battery gives you a whopping 85 hours of continuous typing time, and a MicroUSB port allows you to charge your Jorno. No matter how big your phone or tablet is, or how crisp its screen is, nothing beats the tactile experience of a physical keyboard, and with the Jorno, you can literally carry one in your pocket! Are you as tempted to buy one as I am??
