USB 87-Key Mini Keyboard (Silver) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I was very disappointed by this keyboard. First, my computer didn't recognize it, then I noticed the 3.5 inch floppy disk in the box containing the drivers. The last time I owned a computer with a floppy drive was about 5 years ago. There is absolutely no manufacturer's name on the box so no way to visit a website to download a driver. I finally located a computer with a floppy drive, and copied the driver to a USB drive and from there installed it onto my computer. After that all keys worked except the middle row (ASDF;LKJ). So the keyboard is useless. And at 7.99 + 8 for shipping, it's not worth sending back. Just another one for the landfill.
For the record, I bought this from geeks.com through the Amazon website. I live in San Diego, and geeks.com is in Oceanside, about 30 miles up the coast. The product arrived the day after I ordered it. That was the good part of the experience. It was downhill from there.

Adesso AKB-901 88-Key USB Mini Keyboard Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)My title explains most of it. This keyboard is a great price. It works wonderfully, is light and compact, and has decent key placement. Well, not all the keys are decent. There is one reason, one key, that tanks this keyboard for most people. The only ctrl key is out of place. Just try to do a ctrl-shift to a ctrl-c to a ctrl-v without breaking a finger on this darn keyboard. The horrid little "Fn" key is where the Ctrl key goes and it is a nightmare for a programmer. I'm sure anyone who uses MS Office products much will find it annoying as well. Other than that key, this keyboard isn't too bad.
A similar model of Adesso's is the MCK-91, which has the Ctrl key and the Fn key swapped so that they are in the right place, but it carries a few other problems I just found out. Neither the MCK-91 or MCK-901 are totally worthwile.
So it's basically "pick our poison". No manufacturer seems to have the perfect keyboard. Similar manufacturers, other than Adesso that I know of, are Cherry Corp, Zippy, and SolidTek. Adesso seems to be the best at the moment.

Adesso Mini Multimedia Black PS/2 Internet Keyboard ( MCK-91 ) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)In my search for a replacement keyboard for a old vaio laptop I once used, I'd tried both zippy keyboards and now adesso. The MCK-901 (similar to this one) is also close to what I want, but all the keyboards I've used lack something. The primary problem with the zippy was the spacebar height, which is a similar problem with this keyboard. The height of he spacebar forces you to type at a tilt (towards you) in order to press the spacebar. I guess I'll just glue something on top of the spacebar to fix that...
The major problem with this keyboard is the forced tilt. Most keyboards can both lay flat or tilt. This one can tilt and then tilt even higher. There's no laying flat. Using a tilted keyboard only increases the stress on your hands and wrists when typing. Other than those problems, it's a pretty solid keyboard.
The software footprint mentioned by the previous reviewers isn't a problem. Just forego the software and only load the driver.
If I cut out part of the front border (in front of the spacebar and laid only the front bottom on top of a second surface to raise it up, this keyboard would be nearer to the mark. Except for the rather tiny function keys, I've nearly no problem with the key setup.

Super Slim USB 2.0 Mini Keyboard For Windows 7 XP Vista Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)For the price, an excellent buy. I needed a USB keyboard for my Vaio laptop since the keyboard died within 2 years. SONY wanted $130 and when I opened the laptop to see what was involved, the connectors started breaking (cheap plastic). There was no way I would be able to put in a new keyboard internally. Found this on Amazon and gave it a try.
The design is nice- it is small, extremely light and fits on top of the laptop keyboard. The keys are better than SONY. Don't know how long it will last- it has only been a month of light use. So far very satisfied.

This super light keyboard has built-in steel inside which is a perfect choice for net book users to carry it out. The mini design takes less space and allows you to use the mouse comfortably next to the keyboard. It is easy to get used with these crisp, responsive low profile keys since the keys are basically the same size with normal keyboard. You can just simply plug this mini keyboard into the USB port and start typing.
