Logitech Rechargeable Mac Trackpad Saves Batteries

Logitech's new Multi-Touch glass trackpad is everything the Magic Trackpad is and does, only much more sleeker and with a built-in rechargeable battery. Well at least it's competitively priced right? Nope. It'll also cost you $69.99. Logitech's Rechargeable Trackpad for Mac sits at a much lower angle than Apple's Magic Trackpad, presumably to be more ergonomic and comfortable to use. The obvious advatage here is the rechargeability, which the Magic Trackpad lacks.

Logitech's Easy-Switch K811 Bluetooth Illuminated Keyboard Will Make Mac Users Happy

It seems that a Mac version of Logitech's new K810 Bluetooth illuminated keyboard designed primarily for Windows 8 is out in the Canadian wild. The K811 Easy-Switch is apparently the almighty Mac model complete with what else, a Mac keyboard layout with an undeniable Apple-esque styling made to appeal to the sparkly aluminum loving Mac users. The K811 is everything the K810 is which rivals Apple's Wireless Keyboard with an even sleeker design, the power of illuminated keys and a rechargeable battery. Instead of the brushed slate finishing, the K811 features a silver aluminum body and black backlit chiclet keys. No word on the exact release date, but we're sure the K811 is right around the corner.

Update: Logitech has officially announced it, but it looks like it is now called the Easy-Switch Bluetooth Keyboard. It's now available for pre-order on Logitech's website for $100.

Thanks for the tip, Simon!
