The TI Keyboard, Texas Instruments' new full-size QWERTY keyboard for handhelds, comes with the NoteFolio Handheld Software Application that allows students to type notes directly into a TI handheld for any of their classes. The application also lets students copy, cut and paste text; change fonts; save notes under different file names; as well as transfer and convert files from a handheld to a PC.

It also can be stacked with other keyboards, is small enough to fit in a backpack and is designed to handle the rigors of daily classroom life. In addition, the TI Keyboard is compatible with the TI-83 Plus, TI-83 Plus Silver Edition, TI-89, TI-92 Plus and the new Voyage 200.
