Title: Apple seeks patent for keyboard that sucks (or blows)
Post by: Mr. Analog on May 16, 2011, 09:09:20 AM
QuoteApple has applied for a patent that describes a novel method for improving the tactile feedback of ultra-thin keyboards: each key emits a puff of air when either approached or touched, and can be pneumatically sucked downward in response to touch.

I think the Appledrones will soon be calling for an aroma-plugin compartment thingie, so they can have the air smell like lilacs or chocolate or elitism or chamomile or whatever.
