      I can and do get excited about the typography and the noir feel of Teletype Model 40. (Plus, the arrows on the left side!)pic.twitter.com/8uhpSOv2qv

      Pssst… I’ll let you in on a secret. Olivetti Valentine might look gorgeous, but in reality it’s a p.o.s. typewriter. http://www.massmadesoul.com/olivetti-valentine/ …pic.twitter.com/8CMrBX0VgV

      Olivetti DE 523 word processor from ca. 1975. Kind of a generic keyboard, but those red accents and the shape of the whole machine!pic.twitter.com/W8Zx4OEAu9

      Ford typewriter from 1895. The key “FIGURES &c.” might be just the best key ever. (Photos by Martin Howard: http://www.antiquetypewriters.com/collection/typewriter.asp?Ford#.WRs4bFPyuHq …)pic.twitter.com/xQfQO2ZgRY

      Royal Bar-Lock 14, one of the last typewriters without a Shift key. Really enchanting, alternating palette, with the red Tab on the right.pic.twitter.com/5ORHH263aX

      ADM-2 terminal from 1974. Weird to see RESET right next to your down arrow, and CTRL next to… Q. But it looks very pretty.pic.twitter.com/QxH4KpGB7d

      The Vari-Typer! The classic keyboard that looks like a face. (The illusion is so strong that I feel bad for the last model, missing an eye.)pic.twitter.com/o24AVpi62T

          This is by no way an endorsement of the phone itself, but Microsoft Kin Two keyboard (2010) was rather nice-looking. Plus, a smiley key!pic.twitter.com/qw94UeJbrs

          Such a fascinating story there. The synchronization with http://kin.com  was also really cool.
