Gearing up for the general availability of its next operating system in October, Microsoft included some Windows 7 optimizations, particularly the Taskbar Favorites keys which is said to map to the location of open applications on the improved taskbar for instant access, along with a Windows Flip button on the mouse and keyboard and Device Stage support.
Both peripherals connect to a given computer using a single, small 2.4GHz RF transceiver friendly to the USB ports of both desktops and notebooks. As for pricing and availability, Microsoft’s Wireless Comfort Desktop 5000 is expected to become available later this month for an estimated retail price of $80; it’s available today for pre-order at Amazon.

My idea for a Windows 7 Keyboard replaces the 10-key area with a touchpad that can be toggled between touch and 10-key. It would feature raised bumps to represent the keys, but not so much that it would detract from the use of the touch features built-in to Windows 7. Unfortunately, I'm a consumer and not a hardware designer. But someday someone will build this and it will be great!
