    Microsoft Natural Ergonomic Keyboard 4000 for Business - Wired

    • For those who like this type of keboard it works great
    • Now I feel very uncomfortable typing on regular keyboards, laptop keyboards
    • Very smooth and quiet when typing
    • Terrible typing experience.
    • Keyboard looks good, types very quietly (I'm a loud typer and this is perfect for that).
    • Feel so good when typing now~
    • Used a similar keyboard years ago and loved how it seemed to be molded for you hands, typing is very comfortable, not to noisy and works on both a mac & PC
    • The ergonomics of this keyboard have given me the confidence to look at the screen rather than the keys as i type now too
    • but if you have good typing skills and especially small fingers, this makes keyboard a lot more comfortable.
    • A split keyboard can take a bit of getting used to at first, but I'm so accustomed to it now that I have a difficult time typing on a standard keyboard
    • Work everyday with this, really enjoy using, wish the letters stayed longer, when typing all day long the start fading.
    • Very smooth typing and ergonomically comfortable
    • Spacebar stuck, not responsive enough for normal/faster typing.
    • Bad move on my part because I shorted something out and it went crazy and started typing crazy things.
    • I like the way they've changed it to dip down inside, definitely an improvement on my old model if you're typing from a higher position, such as a standing station
    • But otherwise, this has really helped make typing a lot easier!
    • The keys are a bit sticky so good typing form works best or you will miss a letter, the reason for the 4 stars.
    • I LOVE my keyboard - will not go back to a regular one - took a little bit to get use to but so much better - no more wrist pain when typing for long periods of time
    • The key-typing is quiet, the different in stress on my wrists is noticeable compared to a traditional unbroken keyboard set, and I'm entirely happy
    • At first I was often missing spaces when typing because the space bar basically felt stuck.2.
    • I don't work from home or do excessive typing
    • Her wrist pain is gone and she is comfortable typing continuously for hours
    • I end up spending more time correcting type-o's
    • I pulled it out and after about a week of getting used to having the defined split between my two hands (apparently I had a couple of bad typing habits that needed to be corrected
    • I LOVE my keyboard - will not go back to a regular one - took a little bit to get use to but so much better - no more wrist pain when typing for long periods of time
    • Its also rather quiet when you're typing fast.
    • It's not as quiet as some super-silent keyboards that I've used, but I like the idea that there's just enough audible feedback, which, combined with excellent tactile feedback, leads to more accurate typing
    • It actually improves my typing .using the microsoft stand gives a better angle where your wrists are kept in a rested position.
    • I have been using this types of key boards for years and I love them
    • Having this keyboard has forced me into better typing habits and already my pain is reduced
    • Since I work typing 8 hours a day, I would definitely recommend it ergonomically.
    • I type about 60-65 words per minute, but like most people I cheat some and don't hold perfect typing form and place
    • just interrupts your typing and takes off on its own
    • Build quality is good, but the action is really high and quite heavy, making typing really slow and inaccurate and somewhat unresponsive.
    • Very hard typing... does get better after about 6-8 mo months of heavy typing...
    • The thing was always unresponsive to typing 80% of the time requiring harder typing which only made my hand hurt more using it
    • I ordered this just over 3 months ago and it is no longer useable - all of a sudden this week the letter C stopped working and then any number typed automatically adds a decimal point or comma immediately after the digit...the return window closed already so I'm out of luck
    • I love the feel of the keys and the design which is made to cause less stress on the hands while typing
    • I recommend to anyone who enjoy typing and has a busy work environment
    • This keyboard is the perfect shape to help you accomplish a healthy typing environment.
    • Enter key being small is a problem when fast typing
    • It takes some getting used to the layout, but typing is sooo comfortable
    • Good typing experience
    • The way the keyboard is made, makes typing feel very unnatural
    • This is the type of keyboard that my husband uses and he just loves this one
    • still getting used to the hand placements, not as fast typing on this keyboard as standard but does help significantly with wrist pain
    • I already have one of these and love it, typing on the keys is smooth
    • As of right now, I'm trying to watch how 'fast' I type without activating a shortkey.
    • my average sized girl hands can't reach a lot of the keys which causes slow typing and lots of errors
    • I have repetitive stress in both hands and this model reduces pain but also increases comfortable typing
    • The geometry of the keyboard has kept me typing without much stress or strain for years
    • I got used to it really fast and my typing is much better.
    • And the space bar is so very important when typing that it's critical to get right.
    • Comfortable wrist rest and just the right amount of clicking from the keys when typing.
    • This is not really a problem when typing, but when you are filling out forms or trying to hit just one key I have actually sat here with a flashlight.
    • love it, enjoy typing on it
    • The ONLY problem is that many of the letters have worn off of the keys - but that much typing coupled with hand lotion use, cleaning (I use sanitizing wipes occasionally), and the true abuse that I have put this keyboard through
    • These really took the strains away and keep typing a lot more enjoyable.
    • Its no longer usable because somehow the keys just type whatever letter they like when pressed
    • Improved typing speed and accuracy.
    • As I'm typing this, it goes unnoticed but when I'm typing a new email in outlook, I will get a "continue without saving
    • But don't give up; after some practice, regular typing is fast and comfortable
    • This is the second time I have bought one of these things and a couple months later if starts giving you extra useless characters, type 'h' and get '-h' or control gives you a '4'
    • It is a little loud when typing.
    • and I feel very noisy when I'm typing and have to hit the space bar
    • The ONLY problem is that many of the letters have worn off of the keys - but that much typing coupled with hand lotion use, cleaning (I use sanitizing wipes occasionally), and the true abuse that I have put this keyboard through
    • This keyboard simply REVOLUTIONIZED typing for me.
    • Once your hands remember where everything is on the ultra-curve, you're home free and typing comfortably.
    • Love all the features and it makes typing a lot easier.
    • Send ne t break wthn weeks
    • T-his isn='t an expensive keyboard but t-he lack of support tells me t-
    • works great with "USB overdrive" Microsoft software is sh+t
    • The y, u,i and o keys stopped working after 1 week.
    • The p,[,],\, buttons all failed.
    • Now the "E" and "L" keys are messed up.
    • The reason I'm not giving this 5 stars is that the letters wear off pretty quickly -- I've already pretty much obliterated the E and
