5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent keyboard!!, November 12, 2007

Finally, superbly comfortable keys for fast typing! The Access 600 doesn't have quite as many bells and whistles as the Wave keyboard, which I tried out for a few days and ended up returning (see my review for that product), but it does have the few extra buttons I appreciate (e-mail, calculator, etc.). And of course most important is that the feel of the keys is perfect. Half the price of the Wave and, typing-wise, much, much better!

3.0 out of 5 stars Does everything it claims, but..., December 16, 2008

I recently bought a new computer that has no PS-2 connectors, so I was looking to replace my Logitech Elite LE keyboard and after reading the reviews honestly expected this to be a good replacement. However after owning the keyboard for a couple of weeks now I have to say it doesn't match my old keyboard in comfort or when typing. I'm glad the keyboard was only $27.00 or so, but I'm looking for a replacement for it but will probably wait until I can go somewhere to try a replacement out before making another mistake.

The nice things about this keyboard is that all of the pre-programmed short cuts work perfectly. The volume control is a little different for me, in that you have to turn it left or right rather than using the up and down control of my other keyboard, and the keyboard is pretty noisy, and feels a little clumsy compared to my old keyboard, the angle of the keys are a little less than my old keyboard, just enough to make it feel awkward to me. I've used several Logitech keyboards in the past and have loved them all, but for me this one is a miss.

I know different people want or look for something different in just about everything so this is subjective, but I hope you find a place to try this keyboard out before purchasing it. It might be exactly what you want, but to me it feels like an OEM keyboard, and am disappointed in the way this keyboard feels in all respects.

5.0 out of 5 stars Impressive!!, October 3, 2007

I am very impressed with the Logitech 600.

However, the SetPoint software that came with the keyboard is not the most current edition, so make sure you either update it after installation or download the latest version from the Logitech website.

After installing the software, set up the programmable keys to suit your particular needs. This should add a great deal of convenience.

The touch of the keys are positive with a little friction when being depressed. To me it presents a terrific over all feel. The arrow keys can be used for online scrolling.

If you are willing to take a few moment to learn the features of the 600, I believe you will love the keyboard. I found it to be a bargain priced, quality built keyboard!
