    I enjoy typing with my kensington slim keyboard. It has the "scissors-like" keys, I think this is what they call them.....I tried it a couple times before I bought it, and it gives me the same crispy fresh feeling every time :D, so I went to this one.
    http://www.amazon.com/Kensington-Sl...1?ie=UTF8&s=electronics&qid=1242864100&sr=8-1

    Amazon.com even has $10 rebate for it, wow. I didn't get this deal 3 months ago.


    Then I got another keyboard just to try out the backlit keyboard. It's the Saitek backlit keyboard.

    http://www.amazon.com/Saitek-PZ30AU...1?ie=UTF8&s=electronics&qid=1242864229&sr=1-1

    This one has softer keys, and the keys have a special leather-liked feel. It is pretty comfortable to type with, but I got it mostly for "backlit game" :D. For typing, I still use kensington most of the time.

    i bought this at my local walmart about 2 weeks ago http://www.shopping.hp.com/webapp/s...in_r329_ad_landing/accessories/center_tiles/1


    its really nice its soft and feels really nice.

    i also use it to game with no problems :)

    its also is spill-resistant :)

    i also have the Saitek Eclipse Keyboard which is nice for the light up keys and feels good.

    but i prefer the hp over it for the wireless and for how thin it is and i like the feel of it :)

    also my battery's still says 100%

    i use the HP wireless elite and it's ultra-thin, nice feel, and looks good.

    by the way, if you order the HP, use coupon code SV2130 for $10 OFF $50 purchase.
