Sparta, NJ, April 16, 2002...Instruments and Equipment Co. (I & E) has released the IE700 stainless steel keyboard, the latest addition to this company's full lines of hardware and components for the original equipment manufacturer, point-of-sale, and information technology markets. Specifically engineered for unsupervised public access kiosk applications, the rapid, reliable and responsive keyboard meets NEMA-4, -4X and -12

Featuring a stainless steel fascia and keytops to guard against willful destruction and harsh environmental factors, I & E's keyboard is targeted for use in such varied applications as ticket vending machines, gas stations, cash machines (ATMs), Internet terminials and information kiosks at universities, shopping malls, hotels, airports, railway stations and other public areas. The unit's full size, fireproof, metal keys cannot be dislodged from the front, or defaced by removing key covers. To prevent tampering, Ctrl-Alt-Delete and Windows keys are disabled, and replaced with rear panel buttons to restrict these functions to kiosk service technicians.
