I do everything on computers–work, game, study, edit, media and more. I dumped my Comcast cable TV account long ago. In its stead Hulu, Netflix and live news streams have taken root via the various computers around the house. You can do a lot with a laptop, an internet connection and big screen display. Remotely controlling it all is where things get messy. There are a ton of mobile apps like Remote X, which allow you to control your desktop environment. Today FAVI introduces, what I see as a blanket hardware solution for all my digital remote woes. From desktop to mobile and back again, this little thing wears many hats.
The Favi Palm-Sized Bluetooth Keyboard Plus Trackpad is designed for Kindle Fire with Android buttons at the ready for quick access of media playback and so much more.
This is an exciting product for just about every aspect of my digital life. The FAVI pocketable Bluetooth keyboard is just what it sounds like. FAVI has cooked up a fully functioning wireless keyboard that is nearly as feature rich as the devices for which it remotely takes command. Some of the most notable features are built-in laser pointer, baked-in trackpad and an included USB Bluetooth adapter for PC rolling without one.

I love me some gaming peripherals. For me new peripherals mean new weapons of war to level the digital playing field and tip more frags in my favor. Today Gigabtye is playing peripheral arms dealer to the gaming needy with their new Osmium mechanical gaming keyboard and Krypton Dual-Chassis gaming mouse.
The Osmium Mechanical gaming keyboard is blessed with my favorite style of key switches, the speedy Cherry MX Red. These key switches do not require users to bottom out the key before the key press is registered. Just 2mm into the press and you’re golden. There is also no tactile feedback bump to let you know the key press has reached the registered/actuation point–and that’s just the way many gamers prefer it. Other notable features are high speed USB 3.0 hub, dedicated volume and backlit illumination dials, mechanical macro keys, 5 profiles to choose and Gigabyte boasts easy and intuitive macro recording software to expand functionality to suit your taste and applications.
