LAVA Cellular just lately launched its B5 cell phone that’s claimed to be the primary cellphone on the earth providing an ABCDE (which they name an “Alpha Keypad”) rather than the traditional QWERTY keypad that we discover on our smartphones.
QWERTY keypads had been built-in into the cellphones consistent with the normal keyboards we discover on our computer systems and aimed toward bringing the identical computing really feel and usefulness to our cell units that we’re so used to on our PCs. Apparently, nobody ever gave thought to altering the identical to a extra logical ABCD notation that undoubtedly could be a lot simpler and quicker to make use of for “non pc literate” folks – which in reality is exactly what the Lava B5 is focused at!
With mobiles getting cheaper by the day, they’ve actually penetrated into the far fetched inhabitants of a rustic like ours the place folks don’t have any entry to computer systems or such, however they actually can afford and use cellphones. The argument does sound smart but when that’s what Lava is aiming at, I’m not completely satisfied for a easy purpose – an individual who has no know-how of know-how in order to have the ability to use a PC, how can we count on the particular person to seek out believable use of a ABCD keyboard to kind out mails, SMSs or social networking and so forth?? That defeats the argument for me.
However sure, there’s a second class of individuals from amongst ourselves to which this product can actually be a boon. There are a lot of of us who’ve been utilizing PCs for so long as we bear in mind! And we’re thus so used to QWERTY that we might kind with closed eyes!! However there are others who haven’t been spending hours sitting in entrance of PCs doing work! And for them, the Alpha Keypad is a positive shot winner. It simply makes life so easy for those who have a look at it. The very thought of getting keys organized alphabetically sounds completely logical.
Solely time would inform how fruitful this innovation would develop into. If I had been to think about myself on an Alpha Keyboard, its really laborious to think about! Wouldn’t it make this quicker or would it not make it extra complicated for somebody already used to and nicely acquainted with QWERTY. However Kudos to Lava for considering on this route and at the least making the choice obtainable to folks. This product will get a positive Thumbs Up from us!
