It's Microsoft's lightest and smallest mouse yet, and will reportedly run on a single AA battery for four months. The Wedge Touch mouse ($69.95) also fell victim to leaks a few weeks ago, and while the odd design is still a bit bemusing it isn't as uncomfortable as it looks. It also doubles as a stand: the joint in the middle of the cover bends freely, easily supporting a tablet in portrait or landscape mode at a wide range of angles. It serves as a faux-power switch: magnets in the cover trigger the keyboard, waking it up from standby mode when the cover is removed. It's made of a grippy rubber, soft to the touch and design to sit flush against a tablet's screen without marring it.

The keyboard's cover is especially clever. The classic Function keys (F1 - F12) are still present you'll just need to hold down the Fn when you run into an application that needs them. The function row is dominated by media keys, and buttons that offer quick access to Windows 8's Charms - Search, Share, Settings and Devices. It's thin and light, powered by a pair of AAA batteries that slide into a tear-shaped compartment underneath the keyboard. We caught a glimpse of it when leaked images surfaced a few weeks ago, and it makes a strong impression in the proverbial flesh. We had a chance to check them out in person a few days ago the peripherals will connect to PCs and tablets via Bluetooth, and operate without dongles - handy, if you're using a device with limited USB ports (or none).įirst up is the Wedge Mobile keyboard, which will cost $79.95.

The company has announced a handful of wireless keyboards and mice that are designed to play nice with mobile hardware (including Windows 8 tablets). Windows 8 is just a few months away, and while the touch-centric OS would suggest we'd be abandoning our keyboards and mice for finger-friendly tablets, Microsoft's hardware division has other plans in store.
