BOSTON, March 14, 2006 (PRIMEZONE) -- Lagos Analysis Corporation (LANCOR), a dynamic technologies solution provider, and D&H Distributing, a leading national distributor of computer products, today announced that they have reached an agreement to distribute KONYIN United States Multilingual Keyboards.
"D&H Distributing, one of America's oldest and largest computer products distributors, has targeted an expansive distribution network to market segments that we feel are appropriate for our product. D&H is a key partner for the introduction of our new keyboard technology into the consumer electronics retail space," stated Ade G. Oyegbola, chief executive officer of LANCOR. "We were seeking a distribution partner with incisive understanding of bringing new breakthrough technology products like ours to end users and to help us penetrate certain markets, and D&H was our first choice."
The Shift2 keyboard technology developed by LANCOR represents a compelling alternative to the commonly used standard 26 alphabets-based QWERTY keyboard. Konyin Multilingual Keyboard is the first truly complete computer keyboard technology designed to accommodate combined character-sets for multiple language groups on a single keyboard layout, with no "layout switching" required between languages, no "dead key" typing process and using UNICODE standard for handling fonts. A user can readily type in English, Spanish (Espanol), German (Deutsch), French (Francais), Irish (Gaelic), Italian (Italiano), Hawaiian ('Olelo Hawai'i), Polish (Polski), Portuguese (Portugues), and other Latin alphabetic languages -- without making any special adjustments. "We expect this new keyboard technology to become the de facto standard in PC keyboards," said O. Walter Oluwole, chief technology officer of LANCOR.
"The unique capabilities of Konyin's multilingual keyboards offer a selling feature beyond what standard peripherals have been able to accommodate up until now. In this sophisticated market, it's exciting to find a product with a true differential, especially one that makes something as complex as global commerce an easier proposition," said Dan Schwab, vice president of marketing at D&H Distributing. "We're proud to offer our resellers the competitive edge that Konyin's technology can provide."
