Matias unveils Folding Keyboard for Laptop Users

TORONTO, November 14, 2007 — Matias today unveiled its Matias Folding Keyboard, a full-size USB keyboard that folds down to half size for travel.

"We have created a whole new product category — folding keyboards for laptop users," said Vesna Vojnic, Marketing Director for Matias. "Small enough to carry in your notebook bag, the Matias Folding Keyboard is big enough and comfortable enough to use everyday as your main keyboard."

Compatible with PC & Mac, the Matias Folding Keyboard opens into a standard desktop keyboard, complete with number pad, navigation keys, and volume controls.

"The keyboard will be available on its own, and in a bundle that we call the 'Matias Portable Office'. The bundle includes our recently announced iFold portable notebook stand," said Vojnic.

The Matias Folding Keyboard is $69.95 (US) and available for pre-order at Matias.ca. The Matias Portable Office bundle is $119.95 (US), also available for pre-order.
