The wireless keyboard trades actual keys for touch-sensitive ones, so in exchange for a much more sanitary experience you’ll be giving up that satisfying clickity-clack you’ve grown accustomed to. It’s intended for use at hospitals where keyboard-germs are a serious issue, though I’d imagine it might pique the interest of regular old germaphobes too.
The Cleankeys keyboard includes a trackpad for clicking about and uses patent-pending technology to keep it from registering keystrokes when you’re just resting your hands on the thing

I think this technology will be great for many offices besides hospitals as well as places like libraries were large numbers of people use the same computers. It might help cut down on illnesses picked up at work.

Gee …we come full-circle. The pre-186 ATARI 800 computer keyboard used this. It was not well-accepted although when I worked in a Q/A situation at a dairy/cultured foods manufacturing facility we used keyboards in the production area similar to this (membrane-sealed.)
