Travelers may be accustomed to the shrunken, boxed-in excuses for keyboards that come with most notebook computers by now, but one company has found a way to open up the possibilities of a full keyboard to them: Make it fold in half. Canadian manufacturer Matias unveiled its USB Folding Keyboard on Wednesday, which does exactly what its name describes.
The Folding Keyboard spans a full 18 inches in its open state, making it just as large as any conventional keyboard you might use with a desktop. Fold it over on itself, though, and it shrinks to just 10 inches long, and only 1.18 inches thick, allowing it to fit into a backpack or notebook bag without issues.
