Post by: chyros on Sat, 30 April 2016, 18:57:20: Ugh, I hate it when sites or reviewers do stuff like this. It's so unprofessional :/ .

I'd love to give the Type Heaven a go though. All I need is to convince Topre to give me one xD .

Skip the Type Heaven and go straight for an RF 104UB.

Post by: G-Dubs on Sun, 01 May 2016, 11:44:03: I'll endorse the Logitech washable keyboard. I got one for my wife for about $30 a while back. She has spilled a number of things on it, but it still works like new. I had no idea the MSRP was $80, geez.

Post by: Fiery on Sun, 01 May 2016, 12:06:33: The only keyboard on that list that in MY opinion is somewhat good is the POK3R. The person who wrotes has a point in considering getting a good keyboard if you sit behind your computer alot. But what the hell, recommending a damn foldable/rollable keyboard for a nice typing experience?!? Last time i checked they barely even work. Oh and he likes blues and browns :-\

You can't put things in lists like that unless they are currently available for people to buy off the shelf.

Post by: Leslieann on Sun, 01 May 2016, 15:53:05: I actually have a review of the K400 (the Logitech with touchpad) written, I just need to go over it and put pictures in.

It's bad.
Every reviewer thinks it's a great keyboard, but that's because they didn't actually use it how it was intended.

K400 shown in the article is actually the K400 Plus model, not the K400.
