    Microsoft Sculpt Ergonomic Keyboard for Business (5KV-00001 )

    • There isn't enough separation between those keys and the main keys so the backspace column was a bit hard to dial-in
    • Switch for function/regularfunction keys are smaller and don't feel as nice as the normal keysA little bit of flex in the f7-f9 range, because there is no support under it and a gap in the middle
    • The 4000's layout is maintained (two separated halves), but the problem of keys being a bit too high/deep is solved, thus combining the joys of an ergonomic keyboard with the usual feel of laptop keyboards
    • a bit hard to get
    • I had one of the wired keyboards which I liked quite a bit, as I much prefer the split keyboard.
    • I like this one a bit better as it has a separate numeric keypad.
    • A bit clunky.
    • It annoys me a bit that I can't pick "it" up because "it" is a "them"... and I have to pull them back toward me
    • The delete and back space keys are a bit odd to get used to
    • Cool keyboard, but it has bit the dust after only 2 months
    • As other reviews mention, it's a bit strange that the keyboard uses two AAA batteries while the numeric keypad uses a watch battery
    • I would say that the pain in my wrist has decreased a bit since using it as well
    • Key placement is a bit odd for some but like anything you have to get used to it
    • It takes a little getting used to but between this and a vertical mouse, my wrist pain (from tendonitis) has gone down quite a bit
    • Unfortunately, I found the hand position a bit uncomfortable and I had trouble getting use to the arrow/PgUp/PgDn layout.
    • What's not to like (and you probably notice that i don't generally like MS)?A: If you lose the dongle (like I did when the cleaning woman at work exerted a bit too much exuberance in cleaning my desk) you can throw the keyboard away
    • For larger hands, its a bit more difficult to use, but that's the case with most keyboards.
    • It's a bit hard to explain and you'd have to try it yourself, but their flatter and don't depress as much as most keys when you're
    • I've also found the padding on the bottom to collect a fair bit of dust easily.
    • The arrow keys are a bit difficult to find though
    • It took a bit of getting used to, but my wrists thank me.
    • I use this for coding (mostly with vim) and the escape key is a bit of a reach but accessible enough
    • The keys are a bit too sensitive, in that they are very short and it's too easy to strike two at once
    • When typing there's a small bit of vibration from the keyboard bouncing when I strike the keys
    • I previously had a Microsoft Ergo 4000, and had liked quite a bit, but had switched to the Kensis Advantage for most of my work
    • The 'Y' key is not as responsive on my unit as the rest of keys, so I have to hit it a bit harder than the rest.
    • Cons: mine wobbles a bit.
    • It's a bit hard to explain and you'd have to try it yourself, but their flatter and don't depress as much as most keys when you're
    • My only qualm is the B, which is SO far away
    • The 'b' and some keys nearby will stop working - permanently
    • T e overall function of the keyboard is great.
