Logitech CRAFT Advanced Wireless Keyboard The company announced the new CRAFT keyboard this past August, and we were able to get our hands on it and put it through its paces. One of the first things you’ll notice is the keyboard is solid and well-crafted but much heavier than your average keyboard. This isn’t just a flimsy $10 plastic keyboard; it’s a flagship device. The creative input dial, which Logitech calls “The Crown,” is the most notable part of this keyboard, and it’s not just a volume knob (although you can use it for that)....
