Microsoft Wireless Keyboard 3000
$40.00
Released January, 2009
The Pros:Most extraneous keys can be programmed with macros (including the function keys). Low battery LED indicator. Good software - customize your function keys, see signal strength and remaining battery life.
The Cons:The glossy black finish around the keys really picks up fingerprints. The function keys are a lot smaller than on most keyboards. The included macro software is somewhat limited (won't allow the volume, zoom in/out keys to be altered).
The Microsoft Wireless Keyboard 3000 is a standard wireless keyboard that relies on 2.4Ghz technology and a USB transceiver to stay connected to a PC from a range of up to 45’. The keyboard is extra compact at only 18x7", making it especially friendly to small PCs, notebooks, and even media tablets.

Included is a soft-touch palm rest for better comfort, as well as a spill-resistant design with integrated water channels that drain spilled liquids away. This ensures that the substance doesn’t get into and screw up the keyboard. Additional features include Hot Keys for one-touch access to major applications, media playback controls (play, pause, stop), and an enhanced F key for performing command commands.

Types very quietly compared to other desktop keyboards, though still a bit more loudly than many laptop keyboards.

The ability to program the function keys mean you have to toggle them back to regular use with a "function lock" key, which can be annoying if you don't care to use the macro function.
