Erik Campbell is putting all keyboards on notice with his five-finger keypad. This bad boy can do everything regular keyboards can, with a lot fewer buttons.
These types of keyboards are known as chorded keyboards and have actually been around for some time. To see a demo of one in action, check out the video. It's safe to say that Erik Campbell's design is a lot more finger-friendly (and sexier) than chorded keyboards from the past.
