EmojiWorks has developed a range of keyboards for those who love to let pictures say a thousand words.

Via the Next Web, the emoji keyboard is made by Austin-based EmojiWorks. There are three models, the Emoji Keyboard, Emoji Keyboard Plus and Emoji Keyboard Pro.

This might not be the first emoji keyboard ever, with Tom Scott having created a keyboard for emoji using 14 separate keyboards and over 1,000 stickers.

According to EmojiWorks, typing emoji with the keyboard is up to 10 times faster than the standard emoji typing method. The keyboard features many popular emoji like the poop, thumbs up, unicorn head, taco, heart, and a series of faces. So lo and behold the emoji keyboard, which brings everyone’s favourite shorthand symbols to physical keys instead of screens so you can share your feelings with the word with even more speed. EmojiWorks states that they are Bluetooth enabled and compatible with all Apple and Microsoft Windows devices.

The keyboards start at $79.95 and are available for preorder here.

What makes this keyboard versatile is the fact that you can also use it just to type words, although we can’t imagine why you would want to use a keyboard for words. The Emoji Keyboard Plus has double the emoji plus more from iOS 9.1, including the middle finger and hot dog.

The plus and pro models feature skin modifier keys for changing the skin tone of a character as you can on a smartphone. A few favorite emoji may be missing, so while you can ask a co-worker to get tacos for lunch, you’re out of luck if you want burritos.
