    There’s no standby button which would allow quick off/on again without having to go through the long pc boot process.

    It’s also too big (because it has a built in wrist pad) to be on my lap when I’m sitting at the couch. The large size is ok if it’s on a desk.

    This keyboard is perfect for my needs. The keyboard on my old laptop started skipping keys. Since it’s my backup, I didn’t want to spend alot to have it fixed. This was an inexpensive solution. Contrary to other reviews it doesn’t feel cheap to me. It works as soon as the USB is hooked up. As far as the “CAPS LOCK” issue, just install the software and it shows on the screen, as described. It works from a comfortable distance. I’m glad I decided to take a chance in spite of the bad reviews I read.

    I’ve rarely been skeptical about Microsoft products in terms of hardware like this. MS hardware is supposed to work flawlessy with your MS operating system and this keyboard is no exception to that rule. One of the things I find particularly usefull are all of the shortcut buttons that are pre-assigned for your use. Although I usually like to define the features of my mouse and keyboard buttons, I use this keyboard at home where I don’t mind if such things are already conveniently configured. My favorite of these shortcut buttons is the one located on top of the num-pad that brings up the calculator program. It really saves me time when I’d doing bills or want to calculate something quickly.

    A previous reviewer mentioned that it doesn’t tell you when the CAPS-lock or NUM-Lock key is active but it does; you just need to install the software that comes with the keyboard. Installing the software has other benefits as well since you can activate or deactivate features on the keyboard or modify key commands.

    The only thing that somewhat bothered me about this keyboard was the Function-Lock key. I’m used to my keyboards leaving my F1-F12 keys alone but this keyboard by default gives them all shortcuts or commands. You have to make sure the function-lock key is pressed before using Alt+F4 or any other Function-key combination you’re used to.

    Aside from this I’m very happy with the keyboard. I’ve had it now for several months and haven’t replaced the batteries yet or spilled anything on it (I don’t worry cause it’s spill resistant too).

    If you want an excellent keyboard with productive features this is the one for you.

    Great Keyboard

    I bought this keyboard along with a Microsoft Bluetrack mini explorer mouse for use in my home office where I connect my laptop into my TV. I can work from anywhere in the room and have had no problems with distortion of the wireless signal. Battery life is good so far.The glossier regions of the keyboard are magnets for fingerprints. The function and escape keys are a bit on the small side. Other than that it has pretty solid construction and a good feel while typing. If you are looking for a wireless keyboard and aren’t a fan of the ergonomic design so you are looking for some thing a little more traditional, I highly recommend this keyboard.
