If you're looking for a solid, inexpensive keyboard, it's tough to go wrong with this Logitech unit. It includes basic media control keys, including play/pause (though no track skip - bummer), volume up, down, and mute, as well as keys to launch a browser, an email program, the calculator, and a power button. It's a full-size setup too, with a full number pad, which is a welcome feature.
Action fair to midling, with very little click, which is to be expected in a keyboard in this price range. What isn't necessarily expected is the fact that it's spill-resistant, with channels to direct liquid around the electronic parts and out drain holes. It's also gratifyingly thin, and fits on a pullout keyboard tray easily (something I can't say about my extra-large Microsoft Sidewinder keyboard)
All in all, a good, solid basic keyboard. I don't personally love for the action on it, but it's actually grown on me while typing this review. And then there's this: I'm not using it (well, except to write this). I've given it to my kids, and I can at last be a little less streesed about them drinking juice boxes while they do their homework.
I'd be surprised if there's a better unit at the price point, and can recommend it to any budget-minded computer user in need of a new, solid, basic keyboard. In the under-$20 group, it'd be a five star keyboard, but I dinged it a star for the lack of track skip buttons.

Adesso 19-Key Mobile USB Numeric Keypad with Retractable Cable ( AKP-150 ) Review

I purchased this keypad for the purpose of gaming and performing live electronic music, not data entry.
It just arrived today, I opened the box, plugged it in and popped up metapad to try it out. So far, I'm quite pleased. However, the pressure required to press the keys is about four times what is needed on a normal laptop keyboard, and about twice what is needed on my klunky, classic desktop keyboard.
That said, I still love it. I wouldn't want to spend 2 hours punching numbers into a spreadsheet with it, but I'm confident it will perform quite well for my intended purposes. But, I am hoping that it breaks in a bit with use. Also, the flat, ribbon style, retracting cable works like a charm, and it's exactly the size and weight I'd hoped (I'll post a customer picture soon).
This thing is going to be great plugged into my laptop at shows, and I'm looking forward to playing my favorite space sim with a joystick in each hand and this thing just in reach without a full keyboard in the way. =D

Microsoft Bluetooth Wireless Number Pad Keypad Review

I bought this after an exhaustive search for what you might think would be a popular item. I have a new, beautiful 27 inch iMac, but the bluetooth keyboard from Apple, and even the one from Logitech, lacks a number pad. Why this is so, when the previous generation of bluetooth Apple keyboards were full keyboards, and why Logitech can't make a bluetooth instead of only a USB version, I have no idea. But I use the number pad all the time and wanted a bluetooth version.
This one fits the bill. I would have to say that its color scheme fits the new iMacs better than the Apple keyboard (black instead of white). The item feels solid and the key action is similar to the Apple. It pairs with the iMac without difficulty. I take away one star simply because of its annoying property going to sleep every 15 minutes if not used. This means that when you first use it after that length of time it takes a few seconds to "wake up" and pair itself before the numbers you enter appear. Once you get used to this it is not a big deal.
Thanks, Microsoft, for providing this, and shame on Apple for making me put an item with a Microsoft logo in front of your otherwise outstanding system....
