CES: Razer Switchblade Targets Portable PC Gaming
The Razer Switchblade is currently making the rounds at the Consumer Electronics Show, and this tiny device looks like it could bring portable PC gaming to a new level. It's just a concept design, so it's not available for purchase yet. Considering it's not for sale, pricing is also up in the air.
The Switchblade is similar in design to a small netbook. It has a touch screen, but the most noteworthy feature is its innovative keyboard. The tactile dynamic keyboard actually changes on the fly to match the game being played. Here's what Robert Krakoff, president of Razer, had to say about using the Switchblade with World of Warcraft:
"Take World of Warcraft for example. With the Switchblade, not only can you interact with what's happening on-screen, but having all of your skills and commands magically laid out on the keyboard. It's just a whole new level of experience."
While we're always excited to take our MMOs on the go, the Switchblade will work with all gaming genres. Click through the jump to watch a demonstration video and check out some pictures that show off the size of the device.
