OS X Keyboard

Matias today announced its new , with an extra Control key, plus features inherited from its higher-end sibling, the Tactile Pro. At $40, the company "wanted to offer some of the unique features of the Tactile Pro, but at a much lower cost." According to Matias, "with OS X based on Unix, a lot of new Mac users are accustomed to having Control where Caps Lock normally is, so they can press it faster. Repositioning Caps Lock also makes it harder to hit by accident. We think a lot of users will appreciate these improvements." Unlike the Tactile Pro, the OS X Keyboard uses rubber dome keyswitches, for quieter operation and tactile response. The OS X Keyboard will make its debut next week, at Macworld Expo in San Francisco.
