Great keyboard January 14, 2008

Been using this keyboard for about a month now and love it. I've always typed better (70+ wpm) on laptop keyboards when compared to desktop keyboards (50+ wpm). I even used a Microsoft Natural keyboard for a number of years until I realized that I do better on laptop keyboards. I've also been having wrist pain when using a mouse. I do not get this pain when using the touch points/touch pads on laptops. I started "The Hunt" for a desktop USB full size laptop keyboard with a built in touch pad/touch point. The IBM was the only one I could find. IT ROCKS! I love it. I'm consistently typing at 70+ wpm on it with no wrist pain. The quality feels good. The keys are quiet but still retain the laptop "clicky" noise. I did, however, have some driver issues as I was mating it to a Dell laptop that already had a touch pad and touch point. I have the laptop docked and had to disable the built in touch pad and touch point on the laptop to get everything to work correctly. It still flipped out a little when having both sets of drivers installed. I removed the Dell drivers, installed the IBM drivers and got the keyboard tweaked to perfection. I then reloaded the Dell drivers and all is well except for the fact that I cannot access the mouse preferences when the IBM is plugged in. Funny. Oh well. I guess this is an isolated incident when pairing a keyboard with a built in touch pad/point to a computer that already has a differently branded touch pad/point. It's worth it. I did not have this problem on another pc or my IBM laptop BTW. If you're considering this keyboard, don't. Just buy it already!
 As advertised - Thinkpad experience on the desktop! January 14, 2008

If you're a ThinkPad lover like me, this is the desktop keyboard for you. It delivered everything it advertised, which is that same Thinkpad keyboard experience for the desktop that you get on your T61 or whatever version thinkpad you have with the dual UltraNav and Touchpad keyboard. I had grown weary of my mouse and wanted a keyboard where my hands could stay in one place. What's also nice is that this keyboard has the number pad on the right, which really is necessary for a desktop keyboard. The real benefit is that now I use the same keyboard no matter which device I'm working on. Makes it convenient having keys like Delete, Home, etc. all in the same spot. Thank you Lenovo, IBM or whoever you really are!
Love this keyboard December 27, 2007

Love this keyboard since I can completely get rid of mouse. I don't have to move my hand to grab mouse when I use computer.
This KeyBoard does not have windows key, so I remapped Left Ctrl key to windows key, and Caps Lock key to Ctrl. You can do that easily with using an utility named KeyTweak. You can find it easily on the web.
it is just wonderful October 3, 2007

it is just wonderful!
it is full size, but not very big. I hold it on my knee instead of my notebook, which can be really hot. And my eye can stay further to the computer, which I think can protect my eyes.
I can have more freedom to move and do not need to keep in only one position.
it has two usb port on the key board. It is so convenient! Only one left in the stock? you got be hurry.
 Great keyboard, but where are the Windows keys?! September 27, 2007

I just got it, plugged it into the Advanced Mini Dock for my T61, and all seemed well until I noticed two things that really bothered me.
- It lacks a Windows key anywhere, and I use that key excessively for bringing up the file explorer (Win-E), toggling the desktop (Win-D), and getting a command line (Win-R). It also lacks the Windows context key usually found on the lower right - I never use that, so no big deal. Thinkpad keyboards have them, so why doesn't this keyboard?
- The blue Thinkvantage key doesn't bring up the Thinkvantage menu on my T61.
Other than that, it seems to be a nice keyboard, but nowhere as good as the keyboard on my actual T61.
