Earlier this week I was surfing through smashing magazine’s Beautiful And Original Product Designs of 2008. Featuring the most cutting edge of original and amazing design concepts, like the Nokia 888. However, the design or product that caught my attention from an editing and design perspective was the Keyboard Shortcut Skins for Macs.

This simple skin for your keyboard can maximize your short cut keyboard use for Photoshop, Aperture, and Final Cut Pro. I know, I know…. This is not a new concept and has been around for AVID users for years now, however the thing that distinguishes this skin from the others is that its universal, well at least universal between a few program that I would use, which makes my life a heck of much easier and more time efficient. Also this concept has not been explored for laptop users like me, I use a macbook pro with final cut and photoshop. Having a durable and reliable skin that I can remove quickly sounds really good.
