A patent for a wireless SMS keyboard that comes with a complete set of alphanumerical keys have been filed, being laid out on a flexible silicone rubber panel. This keyboard works like a normal hardened version, save for the fact that it can be rolled up and stored in a small space when not in use. Each of these wireless SMS keyboards will come with a near-field communication coupling system that is capable of detecting the presence of a nearby cellphone, where letters typed on it will be transmitted sans wires to a compatible cellphone, enabling you to reply text messages faster than the traditional thumb method. Pretty neat, eh?
