Microsoft brings virtual keyboard concept to Band hardware

Microsoft has introduced a tiny keyboard into its wearable Band hardware. According to the Verge, Microsoft's Band has become a lot more useful for Windows Phone users, thanks to a new Cortana-powered dictation mode for replying to texts, and the addition of a virtual keyboard.

The device operates exactly like a standard QWERTY keyboard on the WIndows Phone OS, with the additional usage of Word Flow, to make typing on the tiny keyboard easier, or Cortana's talk to text, if typing on a 1.4" screen isn't for you.. The keyboard addition is, however, only compatible with a paired Windows Phone.
