If you are one of those guys
who face problems in handling your touch sensitive handset with just one hand
of yours, here is some good news for you. The software kingpin Microsoft, in its
next gen OS for mobiles, is going to include a keyboard that is specially
designed for being used single handedly. The sources say that the OS is
expected to hit the market in the fourth quarter of the year.
The aforementioned keyboard is
spotted on some leaked presentation of the Microsoft Reasearch; it dons a
curvaceous pattern that makes it a useful proposition for being used by the
thumb.
The rumors about this kind of
keypad were brewing for quite some time now; but the company never accepted the
rumors to be anywhere near to being a real prospect. But now the chances are
that the said curved keyboard will surface on the devices with the coming OS.
It is almost a certainty that the new style
keyboard will reduce the indistinctness related to the words being typed on the
screen. The foremost thing that is to be seen is whether the said keyboard will
be available right from the word go or will be brought to the fore later. Let
us all keep our fingers crossed and wait for the fourth quarter of the
year.
