Gadget lovers with a sense of nostalgia should get ready to drool. A new mechanical keyboard from Lofree will mirror the look and feel of an old-school typewriter while incorporating some modern flourishes.

The new Lofree keyboard won't perform any unusual functions (nor does it promise to solve any specific problem, like the challenge of eating fried chicken while typing), but it will fulfill all the requisite keyboard functions. The device can be set to wired or wireless, and it's operating system agnostic, so you'll be able to use it with your PC or Mac as well as your iOS and Android devices.

The Lofree will come in several different colors, from black to bright pink, and it will be equipped with three different backlight settings. It can also be connected to three different devices at the same time, so you can work across your laptop, tablet and smartphone.

Lofree has not yet revealed how much we should expect to shell out for the retro-looking keyboard, but the curious can choose to be the first to find out by signing up on their website.
