Summary: High quality yet inexpensive
Date: 2008-06-17 - 
Comment: This keyboard is solid and responsive with robust functions and limited programmability. The handles are sturdy and contribute to the overall solidity of the device. The keys feel solid, but not stiff. The keypad is not without its quirks however; the num lock key must be *off* in order to use the letters "UIOJKLM" as letters rather than numbers. The sleep button is the only one that cannot be programmed (although the behavior of *all* sleep buttons can be set in Windows Vista). The cursor buttons are well proportioned and the joystick is rugged (although users may need to boost the track speed on high-resolution systems, i.e. HTPCs). The bundled software is primitive but functional. There is a driver for Vista 64 bit, which is critical due to Microsoft's rejection of all unsigned drivers for 64 bit Vista versions.

Summary: perfect for what I needed
Date: 2008-04-29 -
Comment: The first thing I noticed, that it came with batteries. And not just that, they were brand name AA batteries. Wow, how nice. I will have to say that is a first for me getting name brand batteries with electronics.
I plugged this thing in my Quad Vista 64bit SP1 machine, and bam, went right to the internet, got the drivers and started working. HELLO! I never used the disk, but all of the functioned seem to work with the drivers Vista downloaded. I was pleased it recognized it right away.
I would recommend this keyboard, it is affordable. I have only had it for a few months with light use, so I don't know about the durability yet. But, so far overall I have had no problems. I can even use my regular keyboard, this keyboard, a wired mouse and a wireless mouse all at the same time, with no issues. Not to mention my infra red- remotes for the PC. Yes, as you guess I am running media center....

Summary: The joystick makes all the difference!
Date: 2008-01-30 -
Comment: This will not be your deskop keyboard replacement, there are much better (although more expensive) options for that. To control the PC in your living room, however, the one that you have connected to your TV to watch all those torrents on a large screen while mindlessly reclining in your lazy-boy there is simply no better option.
First there is the pointing device: obviously mice don't have a place in the coach, and trackballs and touchpads have to be "cranked" a number of times in order to get the pointer from one end of the screen to the other; with a joystick it is just a matter of pushing once and letting the device do its thing until you reach the desired icon or widget. Then there is the keyboard: you need something reasonably comfortable to enter URLs and search terms, type the occasional credit card number or answer your email, but you probably won't try to do word-processing, 3D-modelling or serious video gaming in-between your video clips. And last, but not least, there is wireless: unlike products from software monopolists become hardware ergonomists, this keyboard will actually connect from your lap to its base on the stereo rack 8 or so feet away. As a bonus, the packaging looks and feels sturdy enough (but I haven't subjected it to the kids-and-dog sress test) and the multimedia keys work with iTunes in my Mac ... Can't beat all that convenience anywhere else at that low price point!

Summary: Good for PC bad for PS3
Date: 2007-02-10 - 
Comment: This keyboard was designed for the living room or classroom. The keyboard is compact and sturdy. It is strong enough to sit on your lap or grip with two hands to the side. What I like is the very responsive keypad. The mouse pad is convenient and is like a game console controller joystick. I returned this after the compatibility issues with the PS3, but it worked fine on a PC. For the PS3 I loose signal after exiting the PS3 web-browser and have to reset the keyboard many times. There are trigger buttons in the front.
There are also Bluetooth rechargeable keyboards from Logitech. The RF range on this pad is good. It is at a great price, but need to be more compatible with the PS3. Interlink's Versapoint is a similar product. Its cost twice as much but it works on the PS3 and PC. Sadly, its mouse is not as good as this one.
