Consumer review (newegg.com)

Compact but comfortable

When I received the package, I thought they forgot to include the USB transceiver. After a bit of search I found it hidden in the battery compartment for mouse.

Compact, sturdy, looks good. Has been working fine for last month or so

And indicator for Function lock would have been handy in certain situations

Picky Employee

Employees were happy to get a smaller more portable keyboard.

Very sleek design, small and lightweight. Good price as well

Some intermittent connectivity issues so I had to use a front usb port. Doesn't have the additional keypad

Verbatim 97472

I'd do an RMA but it would be more hassle plus the postage than it's worth. That said. About 12 yrs w Newegg and this is the first failure...........pretty good, I'd say

The mouse is still working

Died after about 2 weeks

Nice small keyboard

The instructions given with this are very inadequate no explanation of switching normal keystrokes to function keystrokes whish appear in the normal keyboard. I worked out the solution through trial and error. Mfg never explained the problem.

Definite Pros and Cons

The keyboard is slim and the size is perfect for my very small keyboard tray. I m very happy with this element. Keyboard connects well, and the keys really duplicate those of my laptop (Dell) which make it very easy to get used to

The mouse is defective and does not work properly. If you want to return for new, you have to pay about a third of the cost of the unit to do so, and cannot return it separately. Because of the cost and hassle of returning it, I am considering this...
