Discontinued??  |
I am a mac user, and was given this keyboard 2 years ago. I accidently spilled coffee all over it and was forced to throw it. I therefore went online to buy another one, just to find out that its nowhere to be found.The only keyboards like it dont have the 2 USB ports that let you plug-in external devices. I think its a great keyboard, and cant believe its been replaced by the Microsoft Multimedia Keyboard (no USB ports) and by the Microsoft Natural Keyboard Elite (no USB ports!!)...

This is certainly an iteresting product. My initial thought was something along the lines of "What the heck?", but I was looking for something different.So I bought it. And it certainly is easy to use. It may take a while to get used to layout, but it only took me a couple of days. Now I dont need to even look when I type, I know where everything is. From the Stop button on the top, to the 6 on the keypad. It is all put together beautifully in this disign, and I am certainly not dissapointed. If you are worrying about needing to use one of these all the time instead of a conventional keyboard, then there is no need to worry. I can still type just as quickly on the normal keyboard, even if I need to glance down ocassionally to keep my mind on things. A great buy.

Excelent keyboard!  |
I decided on this keyboard because keyboards I had had in the past decided to give up on me (especially the space bar), and decided on it because it looked as it had been designed for the typist in mind.I was a little unsure of how I would get to grips with it, but purchased it anyway. On taking it out of the box, my hands took an instant liking to the feel of the keys, and the position of the keys. One thing though that I do not like about the keyboard is the fact that the function keys are split up in the same place as all the other keys, for example, instead of having f1 to f4 in a single block, we have f1 to f5 in a single block, which really stumps me when trying to press keys such as alt+f4 to close applications. I have not experimented with all the buttons at the top, but they work; I use other keyboard shotcuts to do these functions. Last but by no means least, I now have two extra usb ports! Although only advisable for low power devices, it gives me a bit more expandability, and as my friend pointed out to me, for those people who only have one usb port on the back of their computer and one at the front, I would say it was a good deal. I was also glad the keyboard plugged both into the ps/2 port and if you wanted the usb ports a seperate connection went into the usb port - meaning you dont waste the ps/2 socket! Buy it!
