Need lots of custom keys? Try this keyboard

It's not one for people who do a lot of typing, but more general computer users will find this an excellent, good-value keyboard

Microsoft Digital Media Keyboard 3000

By Ross Catanzariti (goodgearguide.com.au)

Stylish, streamlined design, multitude of customisable shortcut keys, keys are soft to touch and comfortable

Not wireless, space bar is louder than other keys

If you aren't hell-bent on a wireless keyboard then the Digital Media Keyboard is an excellent option, particularly for Windows XP and Vista users.

microsoft digital media keyboard 3000 review: Yep, it's a keyboard, with no delusions of trying to be anything else. For the price it's pitched at, it also happens to be a very good one.

Good choice

By xerohour (newegg.com)

Picked it up after comparison shopping sub $35 keyboards to replace my janky saitek. Recommend it whole heartedly!

If you like quiet keys, flat layout, and short depth, this keyboard is for you. The media keys are great, and so are the microsoft based keys (the top row function keys on the F-keys). No problems with it at all

If you don't like the "laptop" style keyboards, you won't like it. Lights are pretty discrete and the volume feels like its in a funny place. All of these are opinions though

Poor Quality Keyboard

By Mooreman (newegg.com)

I agree with another reviewer regarding the chicklet sized F-keys. They don't save all that much space for the added inconvenience. All of the keys have a short mushy feel to them. I have never had so much trouble with two keyboards.

The price for the OEM combo is a descent price. The red headlight USB mouse is a classic and works perfectly

The keyboard. I ordered two of these OEM kits. This is the first time I have booted up XP with a new keyboard and had it unable to install a driver that would work. Even the MS-update driver site was unable to supply a working driver. Maybe they work bett...
