Logitech Keyboards and Desktops

Beyond one-dimensional navigation

For a long time, PC users accepted that clicking with a mouse was the primary way, if not the

only way, to navigate through text documents, menus, file folders, Internet pages, and other

items on the screen. While some explored alternatives and adopted various keyboard shortcuts

to increase their efficiency, the mouse hand (typically the right hand) remained the main

device for almost all navigation. Depending on one’s workload, this reliance on single-handed

navigation could gradually cause noticeable strain and fatigue for the mouse hand. With the

ever-increasing number of applications performed on today’s PC, this situation is ripe for

change.

Logitech has been a pioneer in the area of two-handed navigation.* Its latest keyboards and

desktops embody innovations that take this improved navigational approach to new heights.

Regardless of whether an economical or more sophisticated solution is right for your needs,

Logitech lets you combine the navigation controls of the keyboard and the mouse to make

using your computer more convenient, more efficient, and more comfortable.

Making everyday navigation simpler

The Logitech® Cordless Desktop® EX 110 product provides the perfect introduction to two-

handed navigation with two larger controls that that are neatly integrated but very easily

found on the left side of the keyboard. These enable returning to a previous Internet page and

closing an application. With one simple, instinctive touch you might easily open your browser

or e-mail application, then scroll through content, or click to a new Web page with your mouse.

With your left hand, you could then instantly return to the previous Web page, or close your

browser, without having to use your mouse.

Additionally, the EX 110 provides a row of enhanced F-keys, including four programmable keys

that, with one long press, allow instant access to and control of favorite applications or func-

tions.

* Two-handed navigation

“Many hands make light work” is a wise old saying. With the addition of

keyboard-based navigation controls, such as Internet Forward and Back or

Image Zoom buttons, your left hand is able to share navigation operations

with your right hand. Both hands can now work together as a team to make

light work of tasks, while also improving comfort and reducing fatigue.

The Logitech® Cordless Desktop® LX 300 represents just the right increase in basic navigational

convenience. Additional keyboard controls will open essential Windows folders with one touch,

while left-side controls now permit both Internet page forward and back actions, plus the

launch of your favorite Web search page or other often-used application.

Getting into a groove

With the Logitech® Cordless Desktop® S 510, the two-hand navigation possibilities become even

more engaging. Specifically designed for today’s media PCs, and matched ideally to the look of

flat-panel displays, the Cordless Desktop S 510 offers not only flexible image zoom capabilities

at the left edge of the keyboard, but the convenient ability to rotate images 90 degrees to the

right or left with a single touch. It’s even possible to rotate in the opposite direction using rotate

function while holding down the CTRL key. With an advanced optical mouse that provides side-

to-side as well as traditional vertical scrolling, navigation suddenly becomes ultra-fluid.

Consider a typical situation: With a dedicated keyboard control, you open the My Pictures folder,

or another folder, and then click open a file with the mouse. Almost simultaneously, you can

enlarge the picture, or reduce it to exactly the desired proportions with the keyboard zoom

control. Let’s say the file is an Adobe® pdf. You grab the image with your mouse and shift it to

the left. Then you zoom into the image with a quick click and press of the mouse’s tilt wheel, or

pan in either direction. All the while, the left hand is free to concentrate on rotating the image

with a single touch. The potential right and left-hand combinations in this ordinary scenario are

almost endless.

Even more, since many of the S 510 keyboard controls are easily programmable. There is great

flexibility and personalization in terms of what, as well as how, you can navigate. If you like, you

can re-assign the keyboard controls, or the four programmable F-keys, to open Web pages, move

back or forward to a previous page, or close the browser. In any case, it is now possible to imag-

ine orchestrating the actions of both hands across a range of tasks—and it not only saves effort;

it’s far more involving and fun.

Beyond one-dimensional navigation

True to its mission, the Logitech®

Media Keyboard Elite incorpo-

rates left-hand keyboard controls

dedicated to image zoom. In this

case you might open the My Pictures

folder with quick keyboard touch, and

click open a photo file with the mouse.

With the left hand, you can simultaneously

zoom in and out of the photo, or snap back to 100

percent size, all effortlessly.

Standing apart

Moving beyond the power of two-handed navigation and the refinement of traditional naviga-

tional controls, the remarkable Cordless Desktop S 510 Media Remote creates an entirely

different experience. Based on the idea that there are occasions when you’ll want to stand at a

distance from your desk, the S 510 Media Remote provides a wireless remote control unit that

is ideal for navigating and enjoying all your digital content—from as far as 15 feet away.

The remote itself is a marvel of economical design. With fewer buttons,

selected for the tasks that people use most frequently, it’s much more

intuitive than other complex remotes. And with the included Logitech®

MediaLife™ software, the convenience of the remote becomes even more

apparent. MediaLife presents all your stored digital content in a single

large-scale interface. Of course, the remote is compatible with other

popular media players such as iTunes®, Windows® Media Player, or Music-

Match™.

Picture yourself standing with friends about 10 feet away from your PC,

preparing to show them a

digital photo album on your monitor. Using the

remote unit, you can easily open your favorite media

player software, or a file folder, and then handily

scroll in any direction to locate a desired file. The

incredibly fluid four-way motion of the navigation

thumb-wheel provides unsurpassed ease of control.

It not only permits fast and precise universal scroll-

ing, but also lets you pan photos or images in either

direction with a quick, intuitive touch. Just as easily, you can zoom into or out of a picture to

locate and view a particular detail.

Want to give a PowerPoint® presentation during a small business meeting? No problem. The

remote is as handy for navigating productivity applications as it is for entertainment. Now

that’s flexibility.

Unlimited choice

Those who want to experience the full capability of an advanced two-handed navigation

system will want to get their hands on the Logitech® Cordless Desktop® MX™ 3000 Laser. Here,

virtually every navigational option has been provided—not just on the keyboard, but on the

unique laser mouse as well.

With the left-side keyboard controls, you can zoom in and out of images and

snap back to 100 percent, return to a previous Internet page, or instantly close

an application. The Cordless Desktop MX 3000 Laser provides the most

complete and convenient document scrolling capability as well. This includes

the freedom of vertical and horizontal scrolling, plus CruiseControl™, which

lets you accelerate and deccelerate scrolling speed, just as you desire. The

mouse provides sophisticated zoom and scrolling capabilities too, ensuring

that whatever combination of right and left-hand operations you prefer is

immediately available. Even more, you once again have the benefit of

programmability, so, if you choose, you can re-define specific controls to

personalize your experience.

Sensory integration

The Logitech® Cordless Desktop® MX™ 5000 Laser focuses on the growing popularity of digital

media enjoyment, but introduces a radical innovation in the style of the navigational controls

themselves.

Beyond one-dimensional navigation

The left side of the keyboard provides a new touch-sensitive Zoom control that

allow precise increases or decreases in image size with mere pressure from your

finger. Additionally, a unique LCD visual display at the head of the keyboard enables

multi-directional surfing through favorite playlists or radio stations, as well as selec-

tion with a single touch.

To complement these capabilities, the powerful Logitech® MX™ Laser Cordless Mosue for

Bluetooth® includes both vertical and horizontal scrolling, easy speed control, and even

programmable thumb buttons for additional navigational choices.

Easy street

Ultimately, this all means that Logitech is a tireless lead in making it easier for you to find,

review, choose, and enjoy the content on your PC. Whether your day centers on productivity at

work, media enjoyment, or a little of both, Logitech makes it flow more smoothly.
