OWC ANNOUNCES CROPMARK NUMERIC KEYPAD FOR BLUETOOTH-ENABLED MAC COMPUTERS

 Other World Computing (OWC®) http://www.macsales.com, a leading zero emissions Mac® and PC technology company, announced today the Cropmark LMP Bluetooth Keypad for Apple® wireless keyboard users.  Cable/driver free and Plug & Play ready, the Cropmark LMP Bluetooth Keypad adds the crucial numeric capability missing from Bluetooth® enabled Macintosh keyboards for convenient entering of figures, tables, and calculations.  Just in time for tax season, the 28-key Cropmark numeric keypad is important for anyone that works with numbers, from small business owners, accountants, restaurateurs, financial analysts, stock brokers, bookkeepers, and spreadsheet users.  These people that work with numbers prefer using a numeric keypad than the number keys across the keyboard, since the numeric keypad is similar to a calculator, featuring the ability to enter numbers with one hand for increased speed and accuracy. 

Can be Used as Stand-Alone Wireless Keypad - Reduces Typing Fatigue

Designed with the same cylindrical base and brushed aluminum finish as the Apple keyboard, the Cropmark LMP Bluetooth Keypad includes a custom linking connector that snaps in, integrating the keypad elegantly and seamlessly with the Apple Wireless Keyboard.  Priced at only $39.99, the Cropmark LMP Bluetooth Keypad features a full set of number keys, including forward delete, page up, page down and five additional function buttons. Scissor-type membrane keys provide high comfort typing and reduced typing fatigue.  The keypad can also be used as a standalone device with the USB connected Apple keyboard; as well as with MacBook® and MacBook Pro notebook Bluetooth enabled computers.

Cropmark LMP Bluetooth Keypad Features:

  • 28 key wireless Bluetooth keypad for easy and fast working with figures, tables, calculations, spreadsheets, and more.
  • Keys include figures 0-9, operation keys, hot-keys, page up/down, arrow up/down, delete forward, enter function key.
  • Scissor-type membrane keys for high comfort typing and reduced typing fatigue.

  • Can also be used as a stand-alone wireless keypad with MacBook, MacBook Pro, and other Bluetooth-enabled Macs.

      “The Mac community has been asking for a product like this ever since Apple’s mainstream shift to non-   
       extended wireless keyboards,” said Larry O’Connor, Founder and CEO, Other World Computing. “While
       a wired extended keyboard is still standard with the Mac Pro, there are plenty of mini, iMac, and Mac
       notebook users that want this functionality – even Mac Pro owners who want this with an Apple wireless
       keyboard, and we’re pleased to offer them this high quality solution.”

The Cropmark LMP Bluetooth Keypad normally retails for $45.99, but is available immediately at the special discounted price of $39.99 from Other World Computing at: http://eshop.macsales.com/item/Cropmark/8337/.  OWC is also pleased to be offering distribution to dealer/resellers with quantity pricing available.
