Google’s Gmail has had, for a number of years, keyboard shortcuts to help you navigate around your e-mail. But, for many Gmail users these shortcuts were often non intuitive and difficult to learn. Recently, Google e-mail service has introduced the Gboard that will aleviate this problems for it’s thousands of members. The Gboard is now on the market and can be purchased for the reasonable price of $19.99.
The Gboard is the size of a standard numberpad keyboard and features 19 brightly colored keys. These keys all allow you to utilize shortcuts dealing with your Gmail. When the Gboard is not used with Gmail, the buttons will simply act like normal keyboard buttons and type whatever letter or number that corresponds with the shortcut.
You will have to enable keyboard shortcuts under Gmail’s settings before fully utilising your Gboard, but that isn’t any difficult task.
