Microsoft has just announced the availability of three new pieces of hardware coming from MS Hardware later this year that will take advantage of Windows Vista functionality at the press of a button.

  • Wireless Laser Desktop 6000 – Available September 2006.

The Wireless Entertainment Desktop 8000 is the very first rechargeable wireless and backlit keyboard to hit the market. It was originally dubbed the "Ultimate Keyboard" a few months ago.

These new hardware set-ups also bring Windows Vista features right to your fingertips:

  • Windows Start Button: access the Windows Vista Start Menu
  • Windows Media Start Button: quick access to Windows Media Center in Windows Vista
  • Windows Live Call Button: make a call using Windows Live Messenger and Windows Live Call
  • Gadget Button: launches Live.com for quick access to your personalized Gadgets

We've also announced plans to make Windows Live LifeCams compatible with Windows Vista when it's launched in early 2007, so stay tuned.
