Every mobile phone user knows about short message system called SMS. It is very popular among teenagers and young people. They are accustomed to the phone text input method and can write messages up to 150 symbols per minute! If you are a person who prefers to write an SMS instead of talking, and you do it often, then take look at this interesting gadget.

This keyboard, called cre8txt was designed specially for SMS users. It has a familiar button set, just as the average mobile phone, so it will feels just as if you are typing an SMS. It is also bundled with predictive text input software – widely known T9 will help write long texts with ease.

In addition, it can translate SMS slang, which is a way to save space on the restricted 160 character per message, to normal English! So no misunderstanding now even when you are talking to your parents.

Additional buttons with Copy, Cut and Paste functions, Alt+Tab, Shift and Enter will aid in controlling your computer, and with a long USB cord it can be used as a remote controller. Wired, which is not good, but if the cord is long enough to reach your bed or chair, who cares? Be careful not to catch it when moving though.

It is an interesting product, but we doubt it will be more comfortable than a normal keyboard. Moreover, thinking of its price, which is not small – 105 dollars (way too pricy even for a wired remote controller), we advise you to learn to type on normal QWERTY keyboard rather than throw your money on this SMS inspired gadget.
