Cant type in the dark

Ok, so I found a flaw. Since Google changed the keyboard layout on the Cr-48 a little, I’m finding it kind of hard to type in the dark. I’m actually doing so right now, and I’m having to backspace a lot more frequently than normal – which the backspace key itself is kind of hard to find.

I did figure out pretty quickly that I can just tilt the LCD screen down towards the keyboard really quick to light up the keys – something I had to do when entering my passwords and stuff.

What would make this better? In my opinion, putting a backlight on the keys would work, but that would also drive up the price a little too much… in all honesty, I think just making the print on the keys would make them easier to see in the dark.

  1. Backlite keys FTW. Google. Do that. 😀

    My desktop keyboard is backlite, not that it really matters to this blog.. BUT, One thing’s for sure, no matter how the key layout is, My eyes do not have to strain to find a key I need in even the darkest rooms when the Letters on the keys are lit. Just sayn’. 🙂
