Advantages: Separated keys; very nice to type on, very nice to look at (doh!) Disadvantages: None really
I've just purchased the Apple Snow Leopard Mac Box Set from my local Apple authorised service provider, and decided to buy an Apple keyboard with it. The Apple keyboard is priced around £28.00 - and no matter what keyboard I try I can type the fastest with this keyboard due to the separated keys. Very quiet key stroke during operation and just very pleasant to use. The keyboard enclosure is made from aluminium and even without being too close to the keyboard you can smell the aluminium when you first open the product, but the smell soon wares off. Nothing bad or anything - just saying! I actually purchased the keyboard without the numeric keypad - but you can purchase one with or without the numeric keypad usually at the same price.
The keyboard's caps lock has an LED light on the top left corner to denote the obvious, and you have to ...

Ciao members have rated this review on average: very helpful Review of Apple keyboard
Advantages: robust, feature packed, incredibly useful, stylish Disadvantages: large, expensive, replaced by an inferior model
on the standard British keyboard, there are 3 sections of 6 keys, each fully programmable and customisable (more on this later!).

The thing that Logitech seemed to miss from their design was rubber feet as although the keyboard has 2 small ones at the back, they are missing from the raising stands and it can make the keyboard slip around quite a bit, especially on smooth shiny surfaces. The wrist-rest has sufficient ones on, which adequately keeps the keyboard stable, but don't be surprised if you end up using blu-tac to keep the keyboard in place ...
This is a good quality keyboard that offers good value for money in the short term. Although as with most electronic products, the value will deteriorate over time and should be anle to get a cheaper version next year. It incorporates most of the latest features and technology that is currently available on the market.
The consumer will have to spend a short period of self-training in order to become fully acquainted with using the product. This can be achieved fairly efficiently by making reference to the guide/instructions that comes in the box.
After using this product for a few months I have not so far come up against any reliability issues but only time will tell. I therefore have to recommend the product. ...
