5 out of 5 stars works great last long time   June 16, 2008
Love it, netflix on the tube from the comfort of my bed. Laptop on my lap makes me have to pee, the heat and hum, who wants to be tied down to their portable computer anyway. Trackball is great! Left click is perfectly placed, all very convenient.


1 out of 5 stars Poor quality, buy something different if you can   May 31, 2008
Cons:
1) Sometimes it stops to work and the only way to get it back is to reboot the system (on my system in average once every two days)
2) Keyboard is not responsive and looses letters while typing, even if I type slowly. I'm using it right now and what it follows is the previous sentence typed at my normal speed without corrections: "Keboard is not responsiveand loosesletters while tping even if I tpe slowl"
(Note that I'm only 3 feet (1 m.) far from the receiver)
3) No manual. I had to discover how to sync the keyboard with the receiver browsing the Web for 20 min. (note that the procedure changes according to the serial number)

Pros:
1) Ergonomic design

I would not buy it again, I'm keeping it because I use it only as remote for my home theater.



5 out of 5 stars great poduct   May 9, 2008
it works great w/ laptops so u dont have to actually have to see the laptop keyboard in front of u


3 out of 5 stars Good for media centers, not for permanent desktop keyboard replacement.   May 6, 2008
The wireless has a slow response rate. It's hard sometimes to tell if you've typed a key, I started getting a deterioration in the wireless after a week or so, or maybe just an increase in the impatience to go slower. But why should I slow down, it was 60 bucks? IMO, This is fine if you're looking for a quick fix for something like an entertainment center where you'll be using it infrequently and want the convenience of a keyboard/trackball combination. But it's completely inadequate if you are looking for a permanent replacement for your keyboard. I do think it is a very nice design idea, the scroll is in a good location, it just needs better wireless. All in all, I give it a 3 because I think it's good for entertainment centers or to just throw on the coffee table.


4 out of 5 stars Pretty good keyboard   May 6, 2008
I use this to access my desktop machine from the comfort of my sofa. My monitor is on a table next to the sofa, so I can lean back in the sofa and use the keyboard and trackball without having to lean over a table. It works really well. I do have some small issues with a couple of things. #1) when it goes into sleep mode, you have to click a button to wake it up, and that click actually DOES go through to the computer. I guess that should be expected, but when I use the "left click" button just to get my cursor back, I better hope that the cursor didn't stop working above something I really don't want to click. #2) it does have some issues with typing too fast and missing letters. It also does have some interference with other USB devices on the same hub as far as not transmitting all the keystrokes. Also, some items interfere with the RF transmission, again ending up with missing keystrokes. This can get VERY annoying at times.

In general, a really good product.
