Is your workstation uncomfortable? Now you can sit back from your PC with the Casco IR Keypoint. The 89-key wireless keyboard features a built-in I-point pointing device that is operated by your thumb, thus replacing your mouse. Its full- range mouse control includes a drag button as well as left and right mouse buttons. Using infrared technology, the keyboard can communicate with your PC from up to 30 feet away. Installation entails plugging the receiver into the keyboard and mouse (or serial) port in the back of your PC and booting up. Powered by four AA batteries, a low-power indicator warns you when the keyboard is running out of juice. A power-consumption feature prolongs battery life and puts the keyboard to sleep during periods of inactivity. The Windows 95-designed keyboard measures 1.5 by 15.5 by 7.5 inches and is Plug-and-Play compatible. It includes 14 additional function keys, which are software customizable. $69.95.
