The Cideko
Air Chatting Keyboard AK05 is a compact, wireless keyboard device, which is pretty much summed up by the name anyway. The device isn't intended to replace a full-fledged keyboard and mouse, or at least, is not going to be a very comfortable alternative for long. What it
does do well is give you a quick, wireless keyboard and mouse connection - and puts your headphone and microphone jacks much closer to you than they would otherwise be.
The mouse part of the device is actually the entire controller itself. There's motion sensing built-in, so if you tilt up or down, the mouse moves accordingly. The tilt controlling takes some getting used to, and doesn't work consistently or smoothly enough that you'd say, play even a simple flash game with it (although I did take it for a quick ride on some Facebook games, which goes pretty well since they aren't fast-paced). You will find, however, that most common web browsing actions have been taken care of, even a set of scrolling buttons are on the top left to replace the mouse wheel you'd normally have.
The keyboard isn't too bad, but you'll get some cramping going on if you try to say, write a review with it. The keys don't click in like a full-keyboard would, as they require a slightly harder touch. Because of this, and the need to use only thumbs, the fatigue level does go up. It does also seem strange to have the inside of the keyboard curved inward, as this seems to make the button presses a little more awkward toward the inner areas. But for the simplest typing tasks, it works fine. As I was testing this out, it seemed that the experience of pointing and clicking was more difficult on the PS3. It seemed that every time I finally centered the sensitive controls on a link, just reaching over to click the mouse button would be enough to move the mouse away. It all works against you, and makes you hold the controller quite rigidly, again contributing to the fatigue factor.
