Small price to pay November 26, 2008 Hugo Munday (Gig Harbor, WA) 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
If you spend too long at a desk and the aches and pains associated with typing your life away are getting to you, I would heartily recommend this keyboard as part of an ergonomic make-over. There are plenty of other very competent reviews here that go into the finer points, but my 2 cents? It probably won't cure major woes on it's own, but with proper monitor height, foot position and all that jazz, I have certainly noticed a significant improvement. Bottom line my wrists and hands are more comfortable during the day and they don't hurt at the end of it. I'm also typing with greater speed and accuracy with this keyboard.
Great Ergo Design November 19, 2008 Gerard Torres (Tucson, AZ) I love this keyboard because of the way, and the angle at which the keys are split. It is perfect for my tendonitis-prone left wrist, which is why I needed it. I only wish there was a bluetooth version because I use it with my laptop and I hate wires!
Space bar November 18, 2008 Gunay Orbay (pittsburgh) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I received the keyboard today. The space bar is a big problem. It gets stuck in the pressed position. it is also difficult to press it from sides. you need to push it in the middle which is totally contradictory with the ergonomic design. the design itself is quite good but the space bar, which is maybe the most commonly used key, creates a big problem. I do not recommend this keyboard to anyone. Go for the Microsoft Curve Comfort.
Heaven November 17, 2008 Shazz (Philly, Pa) This is the best keyboard out there and the price is right! Easy to manipulate and works well with your hands. Has a rest and on an incline to position your hands properly. I also use a pad for my elbows. Would recommend highly!
If there's one thing Microsoft can do, it's gotta be making keyboards. November 16, 2008 T. A. Hawkins (Philadelphia, Pennsylvania) Because I bought a store model desktop for the family, the store threw in this keyboard for free. I was a little hesitant at first because I wasn't sure if I could get used to the whole "curved" keyboard thing. After using it for about a month, I just couldn't go back to the regular keyboard on my laptop's docking station. My hands feel so comfortable and relaxed using this keyboard, it doesn't even feel like I'm typing! In all honesty, it only took me a couple of hours to get used to the curved shape of the keyboard. All of these keys are virtually silent (except the space bar, it's noticeably louder than the rest of the keys). Because I use Excel, I'm always using the number pad. If you also use Excel quite frequently, you'll appreciate the extra row of keys over the number pad (has an =, (, ), and backspace). Overall, I've been using this keyboard for about a month of consistent use. I'm extremely happy that I bought this keyboard and I think it'll last me for quite some time. Whereas I used to hate having to use those "funky" ergonomic keyboards, I now dread using regular keyboards. Kudos to Microsoft for making an AWESOME keyboard.
