currently still have the Logitech mxDuo KB/mouse combo kit. although, i've replaced the mouse with the g5, and it's a MUCH better mouse.

i'm also looking to replace the KB sometime soon as this wireless KB is now giving me problems from time to time.

just to comment on the G15 series logitech keyboard.


it's really a neato cool keyboard.. but it's horribly designed "standard" keyboard.... it's.. well.. impossible to use..

if logitech followed nearly exact the microsoft erganomic one i posted.. i swear thier sales would go up even further....

Currently (and not impressed by), a Logitech Cordless Desk set (OEM) came with the PC.

Keytop lettering loss - severe, the worst of any keyboard I've had!
Mouse has iffy battery contact, and seems to be a common annoyance on this model.

Favourite keyboard, a BTC with built in glidepad - love to get another full keyboard with glide, but that one also had annoying keytop fade at the end.

Also "retired", a fancy keyboard with colour keytops as a fingering hint and a choice of return key sizes - liked it, apart from the tendency of the return key to stick, if only they'd put extra springs where the "dead" keys were!

To go on soon: Tevion Cordless set, though I'm beginning to wonder if cordless is worth the aggravation when the battery goes out at critical moment.

I use a logitech dinovo edge because it was the nicest wireless board I could find at the time. Along with a G7 mouse it makes gaming on the big screen a lot more comfortable.

Have you used the Wireless Laser Desktop 4000, any idea how it compares to that one? It's curved, but without the big split down the middle... I'd prefer that one, but I don't want to deal with wireless keyboards, and there's no wired equivalent.

Edit: Although, the insert/page up/down group of keys is modified on the on the Wireless Laser Desktop 4000, same as on the Logitech wave... which I hate, it's like trying to use Mac keyboards where the alt keys are in the wrong place.

I've been using the same keyboard for about 6 years

It came as part of the "Cordless Freedom Optical" package. The included mouse was shite and I've gone through about 4-5 mouse upgrades since then but the keyboard is still just as good as the day I got it thanks to regular cleaning and fresh batteries. It's been awesome for gaming and only the G15 series has got me interested in tossing this one out.

In the game Winc Commander Heart of Tiger or no, perhaps, yeah, it was Price of Freedom WC IV, at one point, either the captain or Luke Skywalker used a keyboard where not one was the left and right side of the keyboard with some room in the middle like most "natural" keyboards, but also each side was deeper than the rest of the keyboard. So you didn't have to hold your hands up, they keyboard was going down, does it make any sense to you? Do you remember it? I always wanted to find a similar keyboard but I have never seen anything like it in the market.

At work - comfortable, reliable, and very quiet (can't stand all the clicky noise - my own typing is annoying to me on a loud keyboard) - Microsoft Comfort Curve 2000 - cheap too. A Microsoft Optical Wheel Mouse (ver. 1.1A) and this keyboard sell together for 21.99 at NewEgg.

i can't stand anything that's wireless or without the split...

i've got the microsoft comfort curve 2000 that doesn't have the split and has a more of a "bend" in the transition from one side of the keyboard to the other..... it's useable for quicktasks.....
