I tried the ergonomic version and found it clumsy and uncomfortable. This one is straight forward and easy to use. It has a lot of useful one touch buttons such as zoom, print etc and I liked where they were all located on the keyboard. The mouse design is comfortable and has a back-button which makes it very handy.

First off I love how the keyboard and mouse were designed. The keyboard is sleek, quiet, and wonderful for making hotkeys to open up different programs.

For the bluetrack mouse, it's great for all sorts of surfaces as it says. The extra buttons and custom configuration is nice. However, it's unfortunate that this product didn't suit my needs.

As a gamer, I'm an avid user of the F1-12 keys and great very annoyed with the fact that they weren't keystrokes at all. They were small little buttons that were quite inconvenient to press in unison with other keys such as alt or ctrl. Same with the Esc key.

For the mouse, it felt just a tad bit too heavy for me so I'll probably go get the "Microsoft Wireless Mobile Mouse 6000."

Anyways, this keyboard to me just didn't 'feel' right for what I wanted. So I'll be taking this back~

Large keyboard but no way to turn off

Comments about Microsoft Wireless Desktop 3000:

The keyboard and mouse are smooth and easy to set up but hard for those with small hands. There is no way to switch the mouse off so the battery is always on even when you are not using it. You can put the usb in the mouse to turn it off but if you are using it on a laptop with the usb pluged in the back, it is not handy to unplug and put the usb in the mouse everytime you need to turn off the mouse.

Comments about Microsoft Wireless Desktop 3000:

I started using these keyboards at work after trying about every wireless keyboard out there - and I mean all of them. This one is the favorite of users, execs and doctors alike in our smaller conference rooms. Quiet, no learning curve (no need to 'learn' every time either) and it looks professional. I even got one for home.

Comments about Microsoft Wireless Desktop 3000:

On the most part I like the keyboard. It has a good feel to it. Sometimes it will miss a key if the computer is slow because I have too many apps open and that ends up looking like a typographical error when the computer just skipped the key stroke and then picked up later. That can be a little irrating but on the most part the keyboard is good. Mouse has a good feel to it and smooth motion.

Comments about Microsoft Wireless Desktop 3000:

We are using this keyboard in our office conference room and it works great in that situation. Connectivity is easy and the signal is strong to the other end of our conference table. I originally tried the 6000 model, but the ergonomics were too much for shared use in a conference room. The unit is a little flimsy, but good enough for a medium use conference room where it may get 4 hours use a day and have little movement; where its' light weight is actually a positive.
