highly recommended

a pleasure to use

My wife and I both have this. Great keyboard. Some of the bonus buttons do not easily work by simply installing the software and plugging in, at least in XP. That was a little disappointing. But the ergonomics of the keyboard is awesome.

Great product.

This is a product that not only looks good but is also very usable for people with limited use of their hands. The keys are spaced comfortably apart and the angle of the keyboard itself is angled in a natural way. Even with my arthritis I can type and use this keyboard with much more ease than the standard keyboard.

Great keyboard with two problems

Just got my keyboard yesterday. So this review is really more of a first impression.

The keyboard feels great when you are typing. There are two problems however with this keyboard and they are pretty darn annoying, one more than the other.

(1) The most annoying problem with the keyboard is the sticky clackety space bar. I hope that I will get used to the space bar or my co-workers get used to the constant clackey noise coming from my cubicle on Monday.

(2) For someone who is a touch typist, they will have to go through some unlearning to press 6. The number 6 should be pressed with the right index finger and not the left index finger while touch typing. This keyboard forces a touch typist like myself to use the left index finger to press 6. Pretty annoying stuff if you happen to use multiple keyboards in a typical working day and need to keep switching.

There are some great plus points as well.

The curve and reverse slope seems perfect for me. The software to pull up your bookmarks for web sites or folders with a key press is good too.

Hopefully Microsoft is listening and can come out with fixes and an improved keyboard (or as Microsoft would call it Keyboard 2.0)

Nice Keyboard

It's a nice keyboard with pretty cool features. The hotkeys they have on top are nice and saves you the time of minimizing windows to access your internet browser or email application. The wrist guard is comfortable and the keyboard looks sleek and sexy.

This is actually my 2nd one of these. The 'L' key on my first one stopped working. I've heard this keyboard has issues with keys not working after a while. The space bar is indeed very stiff when you first get it, but once you "break it in" it's fine. I personally don't like my keys to be too soft and like a little resistance when I'm typing.

Overall, I really like the layout and feel of this keyboard. Just hope this 2nd one doesn't break like the first one did. :p
