Just a quick piece of advice for any gamers thinking of buying this keyboard. It's by far the best gaming board I've ever used. Forget so called gaming keyboards, this one os ideal for FPS or any other kind of game come to think of it.

Is not the cheapest of keyboards but their again it is not the dearest.Very good value for money and well thougt out and well done Microsoft.

Sound buttons are Excellent; Web & mail search, five extra buttons you can dedicate to what you want, zoom in togle for browsing and pictures; Back & Forward buttons for easier navigation & when working in word all the keys are there and just to cap it off there is a gell wrist rest which is...

The only thing I have found is that the space bar is not as soft touch as the rest of the keys

A great keyboard to use, buy it fails totally at the first split of water on the keys. The MS Comfort Curve 2000 is less than half the price and "Split-Proof". For such an expensive keyboard, would it be too much to make is split proof

Takes a bit of time to get used to it. but 200% prefers it now than the standard non ergo keyboard. Definitely gave my wrists the support they need. Helped ease wrist pain. Got 2 of same keyboard - one for home, one for work.

I started to use one at work. Now I have one for home too. Fantastic layout. Perfect for typing. I play games on it. It does everything.

A year or so ago at work a few of my collegaues and I were encouraged by our IT Manager to try out a couple of different keyboards and mice. The idea was to see if any of the ergonomic products available would be benifical for us that use them for the majority of the time at work.

Comfort

Daunting to look at; Price

I used this at home for a number of years until I knocked a drink onto it. Decided to replace it with a different ergonomic keyboard, and I still regret it. I absolutely love having the four extra keys above the numpad, they definitely help speed up programming (in C-based languages, anyway) since...

- Very comfortable; wrist pad is nice

- Spacebar is a little wonky if you don't press down close to the center

I've been using them for years, like the look of them. The quick buttons on the top work well, if you want to open a folder or a program, you can set them up on the My Favorites buttons. Overall, don't know why there isn't more ergonomic keyboards out there, but this one works just dandy.

Feels good on the wrists..; it's hard to go back to a normal keyboard once you're used to this

They last maybe 2 years with daily usage; Then some of the keys seem to not work 100% of the time, such at Ctrl

I LOVE IT!!! NEVER EXPERIENCED SO MUCH COMFORT WITH A KEYBOARD. I've just received it. It is beyond comfortable. Totally worth it price. Hopefully it will last long also.

I purchased this to help relieve arthritis pain in my hands while gaming and while it takes some getting used to, it does the trick. My pain level is down thanks to the better positioning of my hands and wrists.
