Yesterday I told you that Apple Lossless Audio CODEC (ALAC), is very interested in buying a company that develops a keyboard whose keys are actually E Ink screens, and today we have confirmation. We are talking about an Australian company called Sonder, it is part of the startup incubator of Foxconn, Apple's partner assisting in the negotiations.
Those from Sonder already offer for pre-order the keyboard created based on their own technologies, it being called a dynamic one because the keys can change their graphics. Basically, we are talking about a keyboard made up mostly of E Ink screens, the image displayed on them can be modified by the user to his liking.
The Sonder keyboard is available for pre-order at the price of 200 dollars, a very high price for such a peripheral, but Apple is not only interested in it. Those from Sonder have even made a module compatible with laptops, and Apple would be interested in offering this technology in the future for its MacBook series.
For now there are only negotiations for the acquisition, but I think that Apple will buy this company and its technologies because they have attracted the interest of a very large number of people. Keyboards of this kind are not widely available, they are not used by very many people, but that is only until Apple integrates one into a Mac.
