5 out of 5 stars Awesome Keyboard   January 9, 2009
This keyboard is awesome! I got used to using a split key keyboard and then mine broke so I looked all over trying to find an inexpensive replacement. This one definately fit the bill and I am very pleased with it. I like the soft handrest and all the extra helpful buttons on it. I definately recommend if you need a new split key.


5 out of 5 stars I love it   January 9, 2009
I always like the natural Ergo design. My last keyboard had coffee spilled on it and several keys sadly died. We paid approx $70 for our previous. I was extremely excited when I saw this keyboard for only about $26 on Amazon. Shipping was also very fast and FREE. They keyboard has many features and I love it. The rests are pretty nice for your wrists too. I was a little baffled when I first put down the keyboard because of its height. There are obviously other settings for it but I left it as is and eventually I came to love this one. Its probably a good way to keep it since 1) I have a bad habit of taking my coffee to my desk 2)I have 4 children running around.






1 out of 5 stars Do NOT buy this keyboard!!!   January 7, 2009
I've used earlier Microsoft ergonomic keyboards previously, and liked them very much. I wanted to update to a USB model, and so I bought the 4000 model without hesitation. Unfortunately, as other reviewers discovered, the space bar is difficult to press down.....so much so that it makes typing rather difficult, which is exactly what an ergonomic keyboard is supposed to help alleviate!! As such, this keyboard is all but unusable, unless you type with only your index fingers. If I could give it zero stars, I would.

Did MS even *test* this product? It's a disgrace that they would release something that has such a glaring deficiency.....but then, it's Microsoft, so why be surprised. Too bad because the rest of the keyboard is really pretty good.



5 out of 5 stars Very good   January 7, 2009
I like it fine although it took some getting used to. My right hand is very arthritic and it seems to make typing and hitting one key at a time much easier.


5 out of 5 stars Perfect   January 7, 2009
I first started using the Microsoft Natural keyboards in the 90's when they first came out. After over ten years I finally had to replace those and ended up replacing them with the 4000's. I thought it was impossible to improve on the original but Microsoft has. I can sustain over 100 wpm on these keyboards and they are easy to type on for hours at a time. There is not a better keyboard in existence in my opinion.
