I don’t like to encourage text message speak, but if you rely on it to get through your daily emails and instant messages, you may want to pick up the Fast Finger keyboard that’s one of the highlights of New York’s 2010 Toy Fair. You can evenbuy one right now for $22.99.
The most eyecatching features of the Fast Finger Keyboard are the shortcuts. Looking at the image above you can easily see there are internet home and email shortcuts and the shortcuts to control any DVDs, Blu-ray discs or music you could be listening to. But it’s the shortcuts below, combined with the F1 through F12 keys that are unique. Each key corresponds to a different instant message acronym.
Let’s look at what’s available:
- F1: ASAP (As soon as possible)
- F2: BSB (Be right back)
- F3: BTW (By the way)
- F4: CYA (See ya)
- F5: FYI (For your information)
- F6: HOAS (Hold on a second)
- F7: HRU (How are you)
- F8: IMO (In my opinion)
- F9: L8R (Later)
- F10: LOL (Laughing out loud)
- F11: THX (Thanks)
- F12: TTYL (Talk to you later)
