But as a heavy gamer, I have destroyed this keyboard. I purchased this keyboard less then three months ago. I have not only worn the letters off of five of the keys, but I also wore off the texture on those keys. I am a heavy user, spending 15+ hours a day at my computer, both working and gaming. As a work keyboard, I have no complaints; it is a sleek, low profile, compact keyboard with good key feel. In addition, while those keys still work, there action is a little different then the surrounding keys. I am not sure if I somehow exceeded the manufactures recommended usage for this keyboard, and I would hate to mislabel it as inferior, I just want to let people know that if key wear is a problem you have, then this is not the solution.
Love this keyboard. I had a laptop for years but converted over to a desktop and never could type quite as fast. The keys have good action and are quiet. It will be a shocker if you're used to standard keyboards, but if you're coming from a laptop, you'll love it.
The price is great and the typing feel is excellent. The only downside is that the keys are so flat that it can be hard to feel them without looking. An example of this is when I want to do a Ctrl + to make text bigger on my web browser (using the right Ctrl key and the + sign on the numpad). Other than that, it's an awesome keyboard.
I recently started using the UltraX instead of a big Logitech keyboard with a more classic "high profile" (). design. While I like the silent action of Logitech UltraX and how easy the keys are to press, I do not like the small (height-wise) "Enter" key and how there's a big - and completely unnecessary - "\" key just above it that I end up pressing all the time when I aim for Enter.
More effort than my Apple PowerBook keyboard, for comparison. This is a pretty nice keyboard. The keys take a little more effort to press than I had hoped. The escape key is a little hard to press, but may just take some getting used to. The special keys are detected and usable on Ubuntu Linux.
