Abstract: There is described a keyboard including user-operable alpha-numeric keys. One or more identification devices associated with the user-operable keys are included in the keyboard. When placed in proximity to the keyboard, the one or more identification devices selectively communicate with a digital apparatus in response to user-actuation of the user-operable keys. The keyboard comprises a flexible substrate for enabling the keyboard to be folded into a non-deployed inactive state, and unfolded into a deployed active state for communicating with the digital apparatus. When in proximity thereto, the keyboard communicates with the apparatus by way of near-field magnetic and/or electrostatic coupling.
