Logitech Wins two Red Dot Design Awards

Logitech, announced that the Logitech diNovo Edge keyboard and the Logitech NuLOOQ navigator device were honored with prestigious 2007 red dot design awards.

The official presentation of the 2007 red dot design awards will take place on June 25, 2007 at the Essen-Aalto Theater in Essen, Germany. The winning products will also be on display at a special exhibition from June 26 - July 23, 2007 at the red dot design museum in Essen.

"Logitech is proud to be recognized by one of the world's most distinguished design institutions," said Guerrino De Luca, president and chief executive officer.

"We are first and foremost a company that creates great products, and these awards legitimize the significant resources we apply to the product design process. The Logitech diNovo Edge and the NuLOOQ navigator are breakthrough designs that appeal to people's desire for exceptionally attractive, high-performance peripherals."

Logitech diNovo Edge Keyboard

Meant to be seen and touched, the Logitech diNovo Edge is laser cut from a single, semi-translucent piece of black Plexiglas and set into a brushed-aluminum frame. The stylish, minimalist profile is accentuated by its dynamic, backlighted icons that are embedded within the keyboard. When not illuminated, the icons are invisible, creating a sleek design that reduces the number of visible buttons. Logitech's first rechargeable keyboard, the diNovo Edge features an integrated, touch-sensitive navigation-and-scroll panel and embedded Bluetooth wireless technology.

Logitech NuLOOQ Navigator Device

Approximately half the size and shape of a tennis ball, the NuLOOQ navigator features a moveable rubber-like ring (called the navring) and a touch-sensitive circular disk (called the tooltuner). With the multi-dimensional navring, people can easily navigate images and documents while enjoying simultaneous 360-degree pan and zoom. The tooltuner helps give people precision control when adjusting brush size in Adobe Photoshop, text attributes in Adobe InDesign, or timelines in video or audio editing. The NuLOOQ navigator works with a wide range of programs including Adobe Creative Suite 2, Adobe Photoshop Elements 4, Final Cut Pro, iTunes, Microsoft Visio and many others.
