Dataglove Makes One Handed Typing Harder

Call us crazy, but we thought new technology was supposed to make our lives easier'like the credit card machine in the back of NYC taxi cabs or iPhone’s visual voicemail. But every now and then a new gadget comes along that no one seemed to ask for and leaves us asking, What the hell are we gonna do with that? The Clove 2 seems to be one of those gadgets.

Developed by the hardware hacks over at Cemetech, the Clove 2 is a Bluetooth dataglove that allows users to type using only one hand when “it’s impossible to use a traditional keyboard.” Typing is achieved through a series of combination touches that are accompanied by unique sounds. Too bad we’d rather chop off both our hands than have to memorize all those combinations. Watch a video of the Clove 2 in action below.
