3.0 out of 5 stars Good but not great, March 17, 2009

This keyboard has a lot of neat features, but they usually end up coming short. First is the mouse, it has a docking station on the keyboard so it doesn't die really quick, the problem is getting it to dock. Its not that it can't be done, it just takes a while to find the docks "sweet spot". Also note that the mouse has to be within about 3 feet of the usb transmitter to work right, don't plan on sitting far away (there is an included usb extension!). Then there's the keyboard itself. The keyboard is great for everyday use and the slim design is really pleasing to the eye. Do not try to game with this keyboard though! The arrow keys are kind of cheap. The strangest thing about this keyboard is the picture frame underneath it... why is it there? It doesn't detract from the keyboard, its just strange though. Overall this set is worth the money if you sit close to your computer and don't plan on gaming. I would give it 3.5/5 if it was an option.

3.0 out of 5 stars Wireless connection spotty, September 11, 2009

I read the prior reviews before purchasing this keyboard. Although some folks mentioned that the keyboard looses connection, I thought maybe it was isolated to their own hardware issues. Unfortunately, I have the same problem now. I purchased the keyboard/mouse for work 4 months ago and there is nothing more frustrating than trying to fire off emails and have your keys not function. To fix it I need to remove the USB antenna and reinsert it into my laptop.

If you are comfortable plugging in the antennae 4-5 times a day this is the keyboard for you. Aside from this, everything else about the keyboard and mouse is great.

I remain disappointed that I need to go back and shop for a new wireless keyboard and mouse. I do love the layout, low profile and responsiveness (when it's working).

I bought this for my TV/Couch setup and the range is pathetic, and dropped out at 4ft. Do not buy unless you are using this extremely close to your PC/Mac.
