3 out of 5 stars great while it lasts.. but something is weak in it.   November 12, 2008
B. Rowland
I have owned 2 of these. I use them on my media center. br / br /The first lasted about a year. Then the receiver mysteriously stopped recognizing the keyboard. br /The next lasted me about 2 days before the same situation happened. br /More than a little cursing happened. br / br /I don't know if its a lack of hot-swap-ability or something else but the keyboards still work but my receivers are fried. they still think they work, but they don't connect to the keyboard. Mac's give me the "I need to identify the keyboard" script and pcs just sit there dumb. br /BUT if you're willing to give it a chance.. its quite comfortable and easy to use on the lap or couch. br /There are much better keyboards out there but not too many with a track ball included.


4 out of 5 stars Home use   November 11, 2008

This worked very well with a laptop. I tried using it in my office though and it is not made for heavy use. I would recommend it for home computer users with limited space.


5 out of 5 stars Great wireless keyboard w/integrated trackball   November 11, 2008
Danica M. Barreau (Grove City, OH)
The keyboard works great. I use it from an armchair about 10 feet away from a 46" monitor attached to a PC. It's lightweight and I haven't noticed any lag in reaction time. I LOVE the integrated trackball on the right and the scroll button on the left. No need to hunt down a mouse and I can just drop the keyboard into the magazine rack when I'm done. A quick double tap on the enter key brings it right back to life. It was up and working in under a minute. The keyboard is small - think laptop size - and I wouldn't want to do large amounts of typing using it. But for web browsing and email typing, it works fine. I looked at a lot of other wireless keyboards with integrated mouses and this was definitely the best for the money.


4 out of 5 stars Installation a breeze on vista 32 bit, works great   October 18, 2008

Prompt delivery from Amazon - 2 day service! Installation a breeze on Vista 32 bit. Form factor combining mini-keyboard and trackball/ mouse just great. No problems working from 12+ feet. Had a miserable experience using HP wireless kb and mouse combo. How did I decide on Adesso wkb - 3000UB? Amazon reviews - thanks guys. br / br /One issue with kb. It is difficult to establish 'num' lock status. Hence 4 stars. 'Caps' status no issue.


4 out of 5 stars It works well   October 12, 2008
M. Amin Plaisted (Hanover, NH USA)
I could have spent triple the money to get something a bit better that looks prettier. I didn't. I'm glad I got what I did. it works quite well. I took the keyboard out of it's wrapper, put in some rechargeable batteries (I had), plugged it into my laptop, and began to use it. It took me a few minutes to get used to the trackball (I've been a mouse or touchpad sort til now). Now the trackball works as well as mouse or touchpad. I'm a happy person.
