I normally use a MS Sculpt ergonomic split keyboard, I was in the market for another one but saw these for $19 on clearance (marked down from $45) and thought I'd give one a go.
It's a steal for $19. It connected easily (it uses a USB dongle), the keys feel good and I didn't perceive any lag. There were no dropped characters or any such issue in my 5-minute test. It uses a single AA battery (not included).
Note that it's big: much bigger and heavier than my MS sculpt split k/b: it has a full number pad and is also much thicker. It actually looks suspiciously similar to this one branded "Macally", but note that the Macally one is bluetooth and this one is definitely not.
The Busselton Kmart had loads of them in stock, I imagine other stores will too.
NB: The Kmart product description incorrectly mentions bluetooth; THIS KEYBOARD IS NOT A BLUETOOTH ONE!
PROS:
- good feel: easy to switch between this and an MS Sculpt split keyboard.
- looks good
- works well
CONS:
- keys are a little rattly (much better than others I've tried but not as good as my MS Sculpt Ergo)
- size and weight
- the USB dongle holder in the battery compartment does not hold the dongle well: it is loose in there but held in by the battery door.
- 2.4 GHz. connection
- 110 key full-size keyboard
- Ergonomic design with cushioned palm rest - Split design and big palm-rest to reduce strain on hands and wrists
- Different angles of the keyboard allow the hands to be at a more natural position
- FN + Multi-media functions
- Supports Windows XP/7/8/10/Linux/Mac OS
- Low voltage alarm design, low power consumption, energy conservation
- Working distance up to 10m (without any obstructions)
