    Washable keyboard does away with sticky keys

    Doing away with sticky keyboards and removing the hazard of spills, the new washable keyboard from Logitech offers a robust keyboard that can be dusted or rinsed in a kitchen sink.

    The K310 can be hand washed time and time again and can be submerged (with the exception of the USB cable) in up to 28 cm of water. Convenient drainage holes at the back of the keyboard allow for easy drying while key characters are laser printed and UV coated helping ensure the letters don't fade in the wash. Plus, the keys can last up to five million keystrokes, meaning this keyboard can take a washing, as well as a pounding.

    "We've all experienced that moment of distraction - followed by panic, when a cup of coffee or a soda spills all over your keyboard," says Reon Coetzee, country manager for Logitech South Africa. "We all know that life happens, regardless of how careful you are you will spill. The company has designed the K310 to look and function like new, even over time."

    It comes complete with F-keys and a number pad, and is compatible with Windows XP, Windows Vista and Windows 7. With twelve hot keys for instant access to Internet, e-mail, play, volume and more, you can readily open your most-used applications with a single keystroke. To make life even easier, this keyboard requires no software for setup, simply pull the device straight out of the box, plug it in and type away.

    The K310 is expected to be available in South Africa from November 2012, for a suggested retail price of R 599.99. For more information, go to www.logitech.com.
