    Microsoft Sculpt Ergonomic Wireless Desktop Keyboard and Mouse (L5V-00001) (With Mouse)

    • There really should be a B on both sides, as people like me normally strike that key with the right hand rather than the left
    • This is a great keyboard for proper hand placement while working on a computer all day
    • With this keyboard, due to the little slope it has, the distance between keys is really diminished and my hand is not aching anymore
    • For instance, on a mac, using command-c and -v repeatedly will cramp your hand
    • If you do any sort of book keeping or accounting, or data entry that requires a lot of number entry, this gives you the ability to run the mouse with your right hand, and run the number pad with your left hand
    • I do find the right hand side of the space bar is a little more "clicky" than the rest of the keys, but not insufferably so
    • I am an IT guy and recently got hired and this keyboard allows your hand to type very comfortable!
    • Kind of hard to reach things with right hand if you have small/medium handsglossy
    • My only complaint (which is actually my fault) is that the b key is on the left and the n key is really big, and apparently I’ve been typing wrong my whole life by pressing b with my right hand.
    • Too bad because I really like how my hands feel on the keyboard, really comfortable
    • This is the perfect keyboard for the uncomfortable hand positioning that I was experiencing
    • I just had one issue one day wearing a bracelet on my right hand and it started hurting with that mouse
    • very comfortable hand fit with wrist rests
    • First, the pros--and there are a lot:--the split and curve really do help your hands, wrists, arms, and shoulders
    • I still think it would fit large hands just as well.
    • The padded part is really comfortable as well and the riser that comes with the keyboard to rise it from the front is really helpful for appropriate hand position
    • This keyboard has a great feel to it, and ergonomically the split hands (along with a vertical mouse I picked up separately) has made a VERY noticeable improvement to my nagging wrist pain
    • Promotes neutral wrist postures while typing for my size, and the 10-key can be moved allowing right handed mousers to bring the mouse in close
    • You can’t easily keep the left hand on the CTRL and shift keys and the right hand on the arrows, using 3 fingers to easily arrow L, R, U and D without making a very tight, weird “claw” that gets uncomfortable quickly
    • Some of the keys on the right hand side are a little offset from what I am used to, especially number
    • I've been experiencing wrist pain lately, especially on the heel of right hand near lunate bone, and have gone through a whole lot of keyboards to try to find something that helps
    • The strange layout of keys on the right hand side of the keyboard (Home, End, Page Up/Down) take some getting used to, but I have been able to adapt eventually
    • This keyboard has a great feel to it, and ergonomically the split hands (along with a vertical mouse I picked up separately) has made a VERY noticeable improvement to my nagging wrist pain
    • when I hit the space bar with my right hand finger I felt sharp pain in my carpal tunnel hurting right wrist
    • My hands are pretty
    • I had to relearn to type a little (previously I always hit the B key with my right hand, and so the placement of B and V on this keyboard took some getting used to), but after that I grew to love this thing
    • The hump in the middle is quite aggressive, and so if you want to use your thumb for keys next to the space bar, you can end up contorting your hand
    • , I am right-handed.
    • I was never able to get used to the weird placement of the keys along the right-hand edge of the keyboard
    • The layout of this device discourages hunt and peck, crossing over with the wrong hand, and some other things I have always done
    • Unfortunately, I found the hand position a bit uncomfortable and I had trouble getting use to the arrow/PgUp/PgDn layout.
    • The right hand side with arrow keys and the other 6 keys (home, end, pgup, pgdn, insert, delete) is a lot different but have started to get used to it where it isn't that big of an issue for me
    • It really works for reducing hand and wrist strain
    • On that one the space bar became "lopsided" because I hit it more with my right hand than my left.
    • The sloppy position of my Macbook makes, for my right hand a V angle
    • It does take some getting used to for the special keys on the right hand side
    • Just be sure to get the front end low enough so your forearms are at least parallel to the floor or even angled down toward the keyboard by a few degrees.)--the usual gripe about the 6 key being moved to the right hand
    • Since this keyboard adopts a switch in the upper right hand corner (instead of a fn
    • It does get a little weird on the right hand side by the enter key
    • After switching over from older microsoft ergonomics keyboards, this one has nice keys, but the spacing takes a bit to get used to - especially the right hand (backspace and enter).
    • I used an old black t-shirt and it looks nice and is easier to clean, doesn't show hand oil or stains etc. anymore
    • In my private life, though, I use my hands a LOT for fiddly stuff, like beadwork, knitting, sewing, cooking...
    • And yes, it's awkward at first, but you get the hang of it once you realize that it will cut your task time in half when you don't have to move your right hand back and forth
    • It is helpful to have my mouse close to my right hand
    • Unlike keyboards with a full number pad you can keep your mouse close by -- I hate the full number pad as it forces right handed mice half a foot to the right
    • Some of the keys on the right hand side of the board are taking some getting use
    • , I'm not so fond of the mouse for more than incidental use, the round shape hurts my hand during all-day use, but that's another story.)
    • The mouse LED light doesn't turn off automatically when it's idle, as far as I can tell
    • Trying to alt+tab or use other key combinations (shift+ for capitals) rarely works as or both of the keys are undetectable.5
    • I liked this a
    • I like the keyboard and wished it worked as it supposed to function.
    • I would like to see a wired version of this keyboard to resolve the N-key rollover issues and the failing to register the letting up of buttons after they have been held for a while
    • Additionally, functions like CTRL+D do not work.
    • i goodwill’d the number padmy wrists thank you
