Seriously John?
That's the joystick.
@JD
"Is that usb or are you just happy to see me?"
Linux FTW
If society didnt deem it totally weird and geeky it would actually be a great idea.
I cant remember how many times ive had to juggle a mouse and keyboard on my knee or what have you.
No touchpad?
In the pocket...
Pink keyboard.
Keyboard on pants.
Pink keyboard on pants.
I'd be too ashamed to look at the camera too.
not that there's anything wrong with that.
Real men wear pink!
yeah keep trying to convince yourself ;)
Great - when you spill a cup of hot coffe on your keyboard you get to sue McDonald's...
It certainly removes a step from the process of becoming completely pointless.
do they come in Dvorak?
But he's not using the joystick strategically located just behind the front zipper.

Where is a bluetooth? Hello - its 2009!
...funtional?...
If keyboard on the pants, then
how about joystick on the underwear?
or
touchpad on the panties?
That would be fun
Is that a spacebar in your pocket, or are you just happy to see me?
trackball(s) in the pocket i hope so ;-)
very cool !!
whats next flexible Oled stuck on your shoe as a monitor?
Is there going to be a piano edition?
Imagine the possibilities, sitting anywhere and as you play your best rendition of moonlight sonata and all manner of secret doors open.
im going to some other forum and adding this to the 'ugliest jeans' thread.
this is when you invite your girlfriend to play a nice game of slime volleyball.
Flight sim game anyone?
(need a good joystick for that)
So only the left part is working ? It must be by design to keep your right hand free to do ... something else ...
That doesn't make sense if you're wearing keyboard pants... you'd have to keep your pants on.
Get the left half of the keyboard to work.
Use blank keys and make the keyboard the same color as the pants.
Getting it to work with all my devices that lack a decent keyboard (currently just my iphone and xbox 360).
I'd buy a pair.
It puts the keyboard on the pants.
Now I can finally pretend to be Alex Jacobson from Deus Ex!
Double click the mouse!!
I guess I've been typing wrong all these years.
I use the letter 'Y' with my right-index finger.
Now where am I supposed to wipe off the Cheetos crumbs before using my keyboard?
i'm not really sure this is much different than http://www.engadget.com/2008/04/23/keyboard-infused-pants-make-it-okay-to-grab-your-crotch/
Would be cool if had bluetooth and flaps to cover keys when not in use so that you could use it with your smartphones and not have to use the tiny keyboards.
