Logitech Cordless Desktop Wave
Conclusion
I stand by my assertion that this keyboard tries, and succeeds, to be friendly. It's like a black, hundred-some-key, wireless smiley face. The flexibility that SetPoint brings to the media and function keys is outstanding, and more than what most people will ever want from this set. But it's no workhorse. I'm a straight-keyboard guy through and through, but even ergonomic-keyboarders will admit that this hardware is designed with comfort before efficiency. It doesn't have any surprises except that it can be so easily re-programmed. And the ergonometrics are at least a little inventive. There are plenty of people who are put off by the cold, back-straightening requirements set by classic keyboards, and this really is a keyboard made for that audience. This is a soft, round, bubbly keyboard. The mouse that it's paired with runs in the same vein. It does mouse stuff, and that's that. Right now, I'd say it's slightly over-priced at around ninety dollars. When the set drops closer to $60 it'll be priced right. For most of a Benjamin, it shouldn't use regular batteries, it should have a charging dock. It's OK to admit it. You hate keyboards. You don't want to type. You wouldn't have it except that you need one. Which is precisely why you picked up this desk set. Pros Not very serious Quiet Comprehensive software Lots of re-programmable keys Cons Not very serious Lots of plastic Skillet

I'm trying to get a couple of bucks for something to eat. Man: What's "Moose Stuff"? Moose: Eh, whatever you want it to be. I could have sex with ya, or I could just stand over there and drink from the lake, and everything in between. Man: Get in.
