"Fantastic redesign by Microsoft"
Pros: Extremely comfortable, quiet, and attractive
Cons: Takes some time to get used to the new key bed shape.
Summary: Whoever led the design team for this keyboard deserves a raise. I've been using this keyboard for a little over a week and must say I am thoroughly impressed. I switched to a split keyboard around 2 1/2 years ago. I found that after the initial few ... read more >>

"Massive and comfortable, but terrible software."
Pros: Great feel, silent, zoom is interesting, learning to type correctly.

"Two wide to allow ergonomic mouse action"
Pros: comfortable wrist position and great elevation option
Cons: distance from letter keys to mouse is almost 10 inches
Summary: This keyboard feels great at first use, but if you are small, reaching the extra inches for the mouse will take its toll on shoulder muscles. While it fixed the repetitive motions issues with my hands, it created chronic pain in my upper arm. Why no... read more >>
