Klingon keyboard baffles your co-workers
A Star Trek inspired keyboard with the letters of the Klingon alphabet has gone on sale in the UK.
Offering sci-fi geeks who have learnt the fictional alien language the chance to e-mail in Klingon it is expected to become a bestseller.
The £44 device is said to work with most computers and allows users to input characters of the "pIqaD" alphabet.
Klingon - which was created for the 1984 Star Trek movie is now said to be the most widely-spoken fictional language in the world.
Books including the Bible and the works of Shakespeare have already been translated into Klingon ... now so can your emails.
Michael Groom, of Cherry who sell the device said: "The Klingon keyboard is the first step in providing PC input devices for all Federation cultures and will aid communications between Earth and other cultures within the Federation that fall outside the domain of Starfleet command.
"Of course, this keyboard demonstrates our capability to deliver custom keyboard designs, keycaps and layouts – whether on this planet or elsewhere in the universe!"
Romulan and Vulcan versions are said to follow soon.
