Keepin' it real fake, part CXLI: if the Nokia E90 had the keyboard from hell

by Chris Ziegler, posted Sep 15th 2008 at 5:58AM


In case you've mastered the time-honored QWERTY configuration to the point that using such keyboards bores you right into a peaceful slumber, we present to you this beacon of intelligent industrial design and usability, the device known simply as "E9000." The Nokia E90 rip features what can only be described as one of the most nightmarish bastardizations of the QWERTY layout we've ever seen, planting a touchpad (or something) square in the middle of where you'd expect a bunch of keys to be. The good news, we guess, is that the "Fashion" label silkscreened onto the back should reassure buyers that they're investing in some of the finest lookin' kit money can buy -- just don't expect to be able to type worth a damn.
