5.0 out of 5 stars AWESOME ADDITION, April 1, 2009

This review is from: Dinovo Media Desktop Laser Keyboard/Mouse Combo, 60ft Range, USB, Black/Silver (Electronics)

I have owned this set for about a year now and still am taken back by it everytime I see it. The asethetics of the product itself is beautiful, quality is top notch, and battery life of the keyboard and numerical keypad is phenomenal. Only bad thing I see about this product is the listed price. I picked mine up from a local SAMS club for 100 bucks! For that kind of money, you can't go wrong.

This review is from: Dinovo Media Desktop Laser Keyboard/Mouse Combo, 60ft Range, USB, Black/Silver (Electronics)

I've been intensively using diNovo Keyboard for Notebook for four months. This is by far the most beautiful, most quiet, most pleasant to use and most expensive keyboard I've ever had. I'm a programmer and use keyboard daily for many hours. My requirements to keyboard are:
1: Be quiet: I have family and family does not appreciate loud knocks at night
2. Be soft: I type way too much to fight stiff keys
3. Have short stroke keys: see above. Short stroke (laptop style) is the best as it lets you move fingers as little as possible.
4. Have a "standard" layout: Delete, Home, End, Page Up/Down keys must be located in a standard 2x3 pattern. I type fast and I go a lot between many corporate client computers that have cheap wired keyboards. I can't afford to re-train my reflexes every time over-creative keyboard designers move the most useful keys into a new position, for example: stock them vertically, as on many multimedia keyboards. Home and causal professional users won't mind, but if you type 8-12 hours a day, hitting a wrong key can be annoying.

This keyboard had it all and there is not much to say here, it hit the spot.

Now on Cons:
- Glossy black surface: looks cool in sale brochure, bad choice for work. The slick surface feels unpleasantly oily under my both thumbs - where they touch the surface below the space key. I hated this feeling 4 months ago, I still hate it now. I would gladly pay extra for a textured matte surface instead - as on any $5 keyboard.
- Function keys are really small, but what's really bad: the whole row of keys is jammed right at the top of number keys. There is no distance between them. Eject key is right at the top of Delete key. I can not tell you how many times I've hit Eject instead of Delete: dozens per day. Still do it, after four months of usage. Learned to ignore the open tray of my CD-ROM, but never learned to like this "feature". Definitely a case of "design for show" taking over common sense and good engineering.
- Price is really premium. $90 for a simple wireless keyboard with no mouse, that's not cheap.
- No option to buy keyboard with a matching mouse. I'd gladly pay extra to have a well-matched wireless mouse. Can't understand rationality of this marketing decision, but what do I know about marketing...

Conclusion: would buy this keyboard again, but beware of shortcomings.

1.0 out of 5 stars Seller Appears To Have Lied About Product Being "New" - Sold Defective Mouse & Won't Support It, December 21, 2010

This review is from: Dinovo Media Desktop Laser Keyboard/Mouse Combo, 60ft Range, USB, Black/Silver (Electronics)

The Keyboard and Mouse are 5 stars... beautiful and a great look and feel.

The 1 Star is for the seller, Apex Suppliers, Inc. I had a DiNovo desktop kit which I loved and as I saw that they weren't being made anymore, I ordered this kit as a backup to the kit I already had (assuming I'd need it one day). I just set up a new computer and plugged in the mouse purchased from Apex Suppliers LLC, and the mouse doesn't work properly... it flitts all over the screen and barely tracks at all. So I was sold a defective mouse... I contacted Logitech customer support and was prompted to enter the part number and part ID, but THIS HAS BEEN COVERED with a sticker that says "WARRANTY VOID IF REMOVED". This is NOT how the mouse is shipped by Logitech, but is instead a ploy by Apex to cover up the mouse's specific identifying information (so you won't know it was used and not new). I contacted them via amazon to give them an opportunity to fix the situation and they have informed me it's been too long.

This, in my mind, is not a situation where the product failed well after it was sold to me, it is a situation where I was sold a faulty used product as "new" by a deceptive seller. DO NOT buy anything from Apex Suppliers LLC on Amazon, as you may get a used item just like I did.
