We wouldn't exactly call it a fetish, but some of us at Crave have been known for our fondness of wood finishes on gadgets. (Well, not all gadgets.) And it's even better when the item in question is made entirely of wood, not just trim.

So this keyboard from Japan's Marubeni Infotec naturally caught our eye when it was spotted on Tokyomango. It's not the first of its kind, of course, but it's still one of the nicer ones we've seen. Even if it's not made of bamboo.
