Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Microsoft Wired Keyboard 600 (Black)
Customer Review: A victory of style over function
Summary: 2 Stars
It seems to be getting really difficult to buy a decent keyboard. I bought two of these based on the reviews here. I wanted something that was quiet to type on, and the volume controls were a plus. But after using it for several months I don't find it to be all that quiet. And the stylish rounding over of the front edge, along with all the front keys (space bar, arrows, etc.) is quite aggravating in actual use.
I find the arrow keys on this keyboard to be the most annoying. Along with the left, right, and down keys being so rounded over they are difficult to use, the up arrow is rounded in the opposite direction. So when you try to use these keys, the rounded section actually dips below the top! The function keys are really small and hard to press too. Add to this the black motif, and you end up with a keyboard that is very difficult to use in low light conditions and almost impossible to use in games.
I replaced this with a Targus AKB04US, which costs a little more but is quite a bit better.
