Advantages: Nice feel, Quality, lots of useful functions ( that work ! )
Disadvantages: None yet.

...I've had a computer for the last 5 years and been online for the past year and a half, so in the time when I had no Internet, the type of keyboard I used tended to be unimportant, … you know the ones, cheap nasty white plastic bog standard things available for around a fiver. These cheapo items had me staring hard to read the keys, and still managed to bash errors with nearly every word (the shiniest button was the delete key!) there was no nice feel to um and the buttons made loud clickey noises, aach …. Nasty keyboard ! The reason for choosing this Trust easy scroll silverline keyboard was more to do with the feel of the keys, for me it doesn't matter how much the thing costs, the feel of the thing is more important, that's how I tested this one. I walked along the line of cheap…. To… HOW MUCH!! Keyboards in my (are we allowed... Read review

Advantages: Easy Office and web control
Disadvantages: Possibly the layout

...As a wired keyboard, I was expecting to have a little struggle with connecting the cable to the PC, but Trust come up trumps with more cable than you can shake a stick at. The layout around the PGUP/PGDWN, INS, DEL, HOME & END keys is at first a little disconcerting to use as it is in a verticle block of six (eg 2 wide by 3 deep) instead of the usual horizontal setup (3 wide and 2 deep), but within hours of using it I found it no problem at all. The touch of the keys is soft, but not that unresponsive, spongy feeling you get with many keyboards. Previously, I have used keyboards with a very positive click, but I find no real problem with the easy press of the keys (I touch-type at about 60 words per minute). I feel that the build quality is far and above what you would expect at this price range, and even the design of the key... Read review

Advantages: Cheap! Easy to use, easy to set up, standard keyboard layout
Disadvantages: Quite large and relatively dull-looking (compared to some)

...'ve pressed sleep only to struggle waking up my dozing computer - maybe it's had too many late nights. The only other 'feature' on this keyboard are the three little green lights which light up when you press caps lock, scroll lock and/or number lock. Overall, a standard keyboard in all aspects, including layout. ♥♥ The technical bit... ♥♥ This keyboard is just under 45cm wide, relatively longer than my last keyboard, although that was a small one so it probably just seems big comparatively, and 16cm deep. It states that it is suitable for all computers with a PS/2 connection. I wasn't sure what this meant so I asked the man on the desk, and he told me that almost all computers have one of these, and was sure I would have one - he was right, so a gold star for him. In the box you will also receive a multi... Read review

Advantages: Inexpensive RF wireless keyboard & mouse
Disadvantages: No docking/charging station, no encryption on RF signal, interference on 25MHz band

...Trust always seems to create inexpensive versions of expensive products. This keyboard and mouse is no exception. Although it is very good and easy to use it does have a major draw back in that it seems to use the wrong frequency for RF transmission. Of course the manufacturer can choose, but unfortunately they have chosen the 25MHz band, which is also the band used for radio controlled toys. Therefore if any radio controlled toy comes within 10m the chances are you won't be able to type or move the mouse. For the most part this isn't a problem, apart from the fact that the mouse and keyboard interfere with each other! If your mouse and keyboard are just at the wrong angle - usually if your mouse is behind the keyboard - you find that no signal is received from the mouse. Not good if you like playing games. The design is just... Read review

Advantages: Released from the desk
Disadvantages: but only by a meter or so!

.... Further investigation proved that the mouse was also optical. For those not yet in the know, optical mice do not use roller balls to guide the cursor! I moved to this way of thinking a year or so ago and I have to say, it’s a better system! No cleaning of balls – (um that doesn’t sound right!) lets just say optical mice are pretty much maintenance free! There that’s better! It took me a moment to realise that the mouse and keyboard were wireless! And only £25.00 – Bargain I was having that! So I did! I got home and read the instructions carefully for loading the mouse and keyboard, and then as I was going to upgrade Win XP I did that first… What you get for your money… Standard Internet ready keyboard – which comes with 2 AA batteries. A 5 button optical mouse button 5 is also a roller wheel ideal for scrolling, this mouse comes... Read review

Advantages: Useful software, inexpensive
Disadvantages: Bog standard wheeled, corded mouse. Stupid instruction booket

...the opportunity to smile sweetly at the IT lad, and ask for a curvy keyboard and a scroll mouse. Many scroll mice aren’t compatible with Windows 95 (apparently), however, this little baby came with a disk and an instruction booklet, confirming that it would indeed scroll. So, installing the disk, I rocked and rolled… ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Appearance ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ My mouse is beige (needs a clean at the moment) at the top, black on the sides and bottom, with a little purple wheel. It has the Trust logo on it. Turning it over, the ball (which needs cleaning from time to time) is purple. Clearly, we have a bit of a theme going on here. The packaging contains the mouse, a floppy disk, and an unfeasibly large instruction manual (which informs you that the packaging contains the above, and, “if anything... Read review

Advantages: Compact, Cool Blue LED's, Extra buttons at top
Disadvantages: Keys close together so takes getting used to, Not that comfortable, Space bar gets stuck easily

.... The main problem I have had with this keyboard is with the space bar. On many, many occasions, the spacebar had gotten 'stuck' at and I ended up with lots of spaces added to my document. This is a very silly problem that could have been avoided if Trust had made the keyboard better quality. The build quality of this keyboard seems rather average Unlike any other keyboard I've seen, the CAPS lock, Num Lock and Scroll Lock indicator lights are blue LED's rather than the boring old green on regular keyboards. I like this as I prefer the blue although it is a bit brighter than necessary to the point that it is blinding if you look directly at them! A bit too bright for a keyboard that's supposed to be low profile since it becomes very noticeable. It comes with a USB to PS/2 adapter so you do not have to use USB if you're short on ports...

Advantages: Low Price compared to Other Brands, Mappable Keys, Looks Good
Disadvantages: A little difficult to set up at first, Mouse feels quite breakable

...a slightly flimsy feel to it when the right or left buttons are clicked. Like the mouse, the keyboard is entirely black except for a silver strip which looks quite suitable running around the edge of the keyboard. I noticed a design flaw in the keyboard is that when putting the batteries in I had to be quick to putting the cover over the top as they had a tendency to pop back out due to a spring. The mouse also is slightly longer and takes up more palm space than a standard mouse. The keyboard has smaller than usual 'Enter' and 'Backspace' keys which take a while to get used to. The mouse is quite sensitive and responds to small movements which is great for gaming, although other than a scroll wheel I feel it could have been improved with a forward/back button. In the box was the mouse and keyboard, connection unit, software CD which included... Read review

Advantages: Good quality, useful extra hot keys
Disadvantages: none really!

...used to feel very “woolly” in use, by this I mean that when typing you were never quite sure about your key presses unless you typed very hard on the keys. Happily this keyboard doesn’t suffer from the same problem! The keyboard has the standard three indicator lights on the right hand side which light up to give you a visual reference when the Num Lock, Caps Lock and Scroll Lock are pressed. These have become a standard feature over the years and do come in handy. Now to those user definable keys that I mentioned above... There are 8 keys in total and these have set functions such as, Internet connection, Open application, Snooze, Shutdown, etc. If you don’t like which keys do which or would like to change the function entirely, you have a handy piece of software supplied which allows you to define exactly what you would like...
