I like it, August 21, 2009
This review is from: One Laptop Keyboard Skin Cover for Both Models of the Acer Aspire One Netbook + Vangoddy ?, Live*Laugh*Love wrist band!!! (Notebook Accessories Only, Laptop Not Included) (Electronics)
Perfect fit. It's transparent enough to see letters from any angle for me. More importantly, for touch typists each key is shaped and the f and j keys have little tabs sticking up.
It's very thin, and flexible. My fingernails often end up hitting the keys before my fingers do. So, er, I guess we'll see if repeated nail stabbing tears any holes...

Takes a little getting used to, March 7, 2010

This product is great not only if you are prone to spills, but for all the crumbs, dust, and pet hair that accumulate under the keys of any keyboard.
Ease of installation? You just lay it on the keyboard. (Depending on your actual keyboard, the Enter key may not have the same shape as this keyboard protector. Be careful when ordering.)
I have noticed a tendency for keys to occasionally repeat when typing. Being that I have a relatively fast typing speed, this can be quite annoying. (I've adjusted settings in the Keyboard control panel in XP in an attempt to alleviate the situation, but with only moderate success. This does not appear to be an issue with the keyboard repeat rate, but rather as if the keys are being struck twice in quick succession.)
There's also the matter of the texture. This isn't a surprise. When you order a rubbery keyboard cover you can expect it to feel like rubber. I'm not sure whether this impairs my typing speed.
There's actually a bit of a technical issue around the use of this keyboard protector as well.
The original keyboard that came with my Acer Aspire One was composed of solid base that the keys were all resting on. When I had an issue with the keyboard, I replaced it and purchased this keyboard protector as well. On the replacement keyboard, I noticed that the base was an open grill work that that the keys were attached to, instead of a solid piece. Any dust or liquids are more likely to enter the guts of the unit versus being contained by the keyboard.
So, what's the bottom line?
I like the keyboard protector, even though there is a noticeable effect on my use of the computer.

Great Fit for the Aspire One, June 18, 2009

This product fits perfectly. Only thing is that the color could be a little light (more see through). That being said, it still works fine!
