A few days ago I wrote about a fabric keyboard this this one is a lot tougher. The Duraflex keyboard is made from durable silicone, and can be easily slid into your pocket with a simple fold. Another great thing about it is that it can last in any temperature, and is waterproof. Not to mention it’s about 1/4 the thickness of a regular keyboard.
“The low-rise ergonomic design minimise wrist flexing and Duraflex Comfort’s extra soft and comfortable keys respond exceptionally fast and precise to key strokes.”

With a popular car show going on today, there were some cool tech surprises, but the UVIA M100 mobile infotainment device from Unwired Vehicles is one of the sweetest. The box uses EV-DO mobile broadband from Verizon or Sprint to deliver rear-seat passengers in your vehicle a selection of entertainment apps along with broadband Internet access so you can check your e-mail, IM, check your fantasy teams and stream music and video. These products can be either installed in the head rests, of the headliner. The only thing you will need to be aware of is that you’ll need a 3G wireless broadband antenna is mounted externally to increase reception quality and bandwidth throughput.
The UVIA M100 will be available in Arizona, California and Nevada in December 2006 and will be available nationally in early 2007 for $3,499.

One new feature with the Zune is that it’ll let you share songs with other Zune users with the WiFi capability. The only trick is that after listening to the song three times you’ll have to buy it for $1. Now, if you buy the song, then the person who sent you the song will get “1 credit.” The more and more credits you earn, the more possible free songs, and supplies you could get.
