    What I have heard so far is that the keyboard is good, but considering I did not like the 6625WD's keyboard can you tell me if it's anything like that one?Also it would be good to know what it's like to type with such a small screen as the 14 inch or 15 inch.

    Appreciate your input.

    You are starting topics for every question that you have isn't it? =s

    The keyboard is giving a nice feedback and feels quite nice with the rubber finish.
    In comparison with my 6224W keyboard it feels much the same, only the finish is different...

    In comparison with the 6625WD it's quite different, other feedback (read: better)

    And using a keyboard with a 14" / 15,4" screen.. Try it in a hardwarestore =s

    The keyboard is the same on the 14.1"/15.4" models, no difference.
    It's much like the keyboard on the 3415W.

    Thanks guys.

    And no CLB-NL I hardly start a thread with every question, which should be quite obvious. However, if there is not an appropriate place for it...

    Anyhow, going to a store and typing for hours is hardly something they will appreciate, hence my question; How is it to type on a small screen, hours on end? Strain, focus etc. Do you do any programming or word processing at all on your Notus kadett2k8?

    I really like the keyboard on my Nox A15, both the feel of it and the sound when typing. I use it for programming, and can do it for hours without any problems.

    @NegatiVe
    Well I feel no eye strain using my Notus A12. I mostly use it on business when I need to have documents and business stuff with me, and for light word processing and internet use at home.
    I haven't regretted buying the Notus A12 yet. The keybaord is a bit smaller than standard size, but it's something you get used to quite quickly. I've tried the ASUS/Acer ect. netbooks and the small ones have keyboards made for children. You can hardly use the keyboard for anything without hitting the wrong keys unless you look at the keyboard when you write.
