Good product

Very good keyboard, good feel & look. Haven't used mouse yet. I also liked the wrist pad.

great keyboard and mouse

I recently purchased this Logitech wave keyboard after reading reviews here. In the last 15 yewrs I've had probably 5 Microsoft ergonomic keyboards and been very satisfied. Decided this time to try the Logitech. Other people in their reviews talk of the size of the keyboard as being so large. After a Microsoft ergonomic, this is quite a bit smaller. The typing is louder, which is okay with me. The keys move easily, and I can type as fast as I think and I am extremely pleased. I love not having wires over my desk. It is so easy to use I set it up in about a minute (maybe 2). I did not bother to find out all the magical things it can do as all I want to do with it is bype and type fast. It does that well. This is silly but one of the things I love most is the plastic cover. I no longer have cat hairs between my keys. I highly recommend this.

A new owner's perspective

Note: I'm a woman with very small hands. I can only speak from my own perspective and let you interpret how to use my experiences.

I just got this set yesterday and have really been enjoying it. It's much more comfortable than my last Logitech set (LX700), but that comes with it being 5 years newer.
The keyboard seems to be nice and quiet, even for a very fast typist like me. Quieter than any other keyboard I've used before. It's difficult getting used to the new placement of the home, end, delete, page up, and page down buttons, but this is not the only keyboard nowadays that has this. It's not really an issue, just a bit of a learning curve. I like the amount of customization that I'm able to do. I can set my frequently visited web pages to certain keys, have my music pop up with the click of one button, as well as switching between programs without having to go with alt+tab. This is especially nice for people like me with very small hands. One thing that is a bit inconvenient is the fact that the media buttons do not work in Foobar (which is my media player of choice). This isn't really a big deal considering I normally just set my music and minimize the player for several hours.

The mouse is fantastic. I love that it's much smaller than my previous mouse, so it fits really well in my hand. I don't understand those who have complained about the placement of the forward and back buttons. For me, it's actually easier. I have a very small shift (instead of having to completely move my thumb, which was uncomfortable) and bam, the button's been clicked. Have not done it accidentally, but it's very comfortable to use them. Also, I've found that it tracks really really well. I read one reviewer who said that "the problem was obvious when you noticed that the laser is high up and covered partly by plastic". Actually, if you'll notice, the laser is angled in such a way as to be effectively centered even though it doesn't appear to be at first glance.

So, to summarize:

-Keyboard Pros-
Comfortable
Quiet
Extremely customizable
Easy on smaller hands

-Keyboard Cons-
Media buttons do not work in Foobar (my media player of choice)
Home, end, delete, page up, and page down buttons are placed differently than standard (a feature not exclusive to this keyboard)

-Mouse Pros-
Great for small hands
Comfortable
Tracks excellently
Scrolls smoothly in all directions
Back and forward buttons are comfortable to use

-Mouse Cons-
None that I've found.

Also, I found the software to be very easy to install and use. Within about 5 minutes I was ready to go!

If necessary, I will come and amend this review once I've had more time to use it. This is simply my first bit of impression of it. Over all, EXCELLENT!

This items is certainly worth them money! If you are looking for an inexpensive keyboard that is easy to install and of reasonable quality, this is a good deal

wave keyboard

This keyboard works smoothly and efficiently with most laptops I have tried it on. It shipped fast and ahead of schedule.
The one drawback of it, is it is a little large and finding a place for it on a medium to small desk will be a problem.
