Great Keyboard - Long Reception & Rechargeable Batteries!
This cordless keyboard & mouse combination is superior to many other keyboards/ mice due to its long reception. Most cordless keyboards have a 6 ft. range, but this one is 4x more with 24 ft. reception range. I've tried other keyboards from Logitech and Microsoft claiming 12 ft. reception, but could only do 6 ft. With this Creative keyboard, I'm able to get 16 ft. range no problems with lots of electronic devices nearby. If you really need range farther than that (illogical usage since it defeats the purpose of a large screen TV), then you would need to get a bluetooth keyboard/ mouse, which would cost at least $100+.
Other cool features about this keyboard/ mouse are: 1. transmitter has multiple channels & unique ids for better reception and security, 2. batteries for keyboard & mouse are simultaneously rechargeable and replaceable, and can be charged while in use, 3. 15 keys are custom assignable to programs, 4. the mouse's buttons are customizable to specific keys.
Note that Creative actually made 2 versions of this keyboard. One version is the non-standard type with 2 "\" keys as mentioned in a previous review, and another one is the standard type with only 1 "\" key. When buying this product, make sure the seller specifies if the keyboard is standard or not.
Nonstandard keyboard layout
If you do serious typing for a living like me, this is NOT the keyboard for you. For some bizarre reason the Creative people decided to put two "\" (forward slash) keys on this keyboard. I barely used the one to begin with. To make matters worse, this redundant key is located immediately to the left of the letter "Z", which is traditionally where the shift key should be and the shift key is now two keys away from "Z". I typed one document with this keyboard and I hit that "\" key just about every time I wanted to hit the shift key. To accommodate this extra key, they shrunk the left shift key to half it's usual size and my left pinkie had to do an uncomfortable stretch to hit this shift key in it's nonstandard location. The other "\" key, which is usually located either above the enter key or next to the backspace key is now placed between the enter key and the apostrophe key on the "home row". And again, I am hitting that "\" key with my right pinkie instead of the enter key, which again, is an extra distance/stretch of my pinkie away.
The mouse also has a design problem. It has a "back" button on the left side of the mouse and a "forward" button on the right side. These buttons are located midway between the front and back of the mouse and almost flush with the top of the mouse. So when I grab the mouse to move it around I found myself accidentally pressing the "forward" button a lot and had to hold the mouse in an uncomfortable/unnatural way in order to avoid hitting that button.
It is unfortunate that they chose to play fast and loose with the standard QWERTY lay out as the ability to charge the batteries without taking them out of the keyboard or mouse is a nice feature. If you are a hunt and peck typist, maybe you can live with the changes, but if you going for speed and type for a living, this keyboard will frustrate you immensely.
Also, a personal pet peeve which is common to most wireless keyboards: The "cap lock", "number lock" and "scroll lock" indicators are located on the receiver and not on the keyboard. Are we suppose to glance 5 or 10 feet way everytime we want to see these things?
Mouse has stopped working twice now.
This keyboard and mouse combo came with my new computer. I've returned it once because the mouse stopped working on the 2nd day that I had been using it. Unfortunately, the replacement mouse stopped functioning a week later. I've been much happier with the Microsoft Wireless 3000 keyboard and mouse.
