Customer ReviewsReviewed on 2007-03-08      Great size, keys could be better This is the perfect sized keyboard you've been looking for, if you want to get your mouse next to your keyboard on a smallish under-desk keyboard tray. It is a tremendous help ergonomically to have the mouse in the lower, nearer position. However, the keyson this keyboard are small, and have a very light bounce to them, and it is easy to mistype. Adesso could do more to give the keys a distinctive feel, so you really know where your fingers are. But if you are a decent typist, and don't mind running spell-check from time to time, this can work well.

The num lock will sometimes activate on these units for no apparent reason. One unit arrived with loose connections, and has an intermittant fault. A bit dissapointed with the quality of this item |  | Reviewed on 2006-01-13      workable if you don't use the "ctrl" key My title explains most of it. This keyboard is a great price. It works wonderfully, is light and compact, and has decent key placement. Well, not all the keys are decent. There is one reason, one key, that tanks this keyboard for most people. The only ctrl key is out of place. Just try to do a ctrl-shift to a ctrl-c to a ctrl-v without breaking a finger on this darn keyboard. The horrid little "Fn" key is where the Ctrl key goes and it is a nightmare for a programmer. I'm sure anyone who uses MS Office products much will find it annoying as well. Other than that key, this keyboard isn't too bad.
A similar model of Adesso's is the MCK-91, which has the Ctrl key and the Fn key swapped so that they are in the right place, but it carries a few other problems I just found out. Neither the MCK-91 or MCK-901 are totally worthwile.
So it's basically "pick our poison". No manufacturer seems to have the perfect keyboard. Similar manufacturers, other than Adesso that I know of, are Cherry Corp, Zippy, and SolidTek. Adesso seems to be the best at the moment. |  |
