Last week I talked about one of our colleagues who’s out in China sourcing some new products for us. Well, he’s managed to make an improvement to one of our existing products, the ever-popular Large Lower Case Keyboard. A few of our customers who have a visual impairment told us that the white symbols on yellow keys were sometimes hard to make out, so we’re now stocking a version with orange keys instead. Take a look at the difference:

Old

New
I think even our fully-sighted readers will agree there is quite a significant difference. The Royal Society for the Blind and Partially Sighted (RNIB) agree, and have officially approved keyboards which use orange keys rather than yellow.
The first shipment is currently on its way over to us, and we’ll update the product images on the website as soon as it’s arrived.
Next week, we’ll be looking at another keyboard, but this one is of the virtual variety. Until then, thanks for reading, have a good weekend and I’ll be back same time next week.


That was a really interesting post, I enjoyed reading it. You are dead right!
