Does anyone know of a wireless keyboard that doesn't look like a retarded redneck child? It seems that nowadays every single wireless keyboard rearrange their "insert, home, etc etc" keys into a weird mess.

Retardation includes "ergonomic" keyboards etc. I just want some oldschool shit but with wireless! HALP!

ah, but I don't need a mouse, and that keyboard still has that retardation thing going with the insert and the other keys.

I'll show you what I'm looking for:

That's my current keyboard (complete with swedish moonspeak letters and strange placement of special characters), and it's exactly what I love. It's an old as shit PS2 keyboard. No frills and the buttons in exactly the right places. However for PS3 and since I'm going to be putting my computer further away from my desk I need something wireless.

Image
My trusty wireless G7, I love it. Except for the mousewheel.



edit: man my desk looks DUSTY in those pics, I blame it on the flash, I can't even see that dust otherwise.

The older Logitech keyboards should have a standard ins-del-block... I've got one with the rearrange layout and you simply get used to it... it's only hard if I'm working in the university with a standard board... ^^

Click here for hi-res version of the keyboard standing in it's recharger

It's Bluetooth (Bluetooth USB included), with a response time like no other wireless keyboard. It has Logitech PerfectStroke, which means it's nicer to type with than anything else you have ever tried, it looks good, and has a phenomonal battery time (2 months on one recharge).

that looks good (apart from the lighter thing at the front). Really nice and simple, but why oh why did they remove the numerical keys?

If I find nothing else I might go with that one though. Unfortunately I always use the numerical when entering numbers, so much faster. I'm a hard to satisfy customer!

Ha! Love that keyboard, but didn't buy it yet. How is the bluetooth part working? Have read that the're a some problems with it. And I think I would miss mah numblock.

haha, I just realised it was about the size of a laptop keyboard. No go!
But yeah, I don't understand why so many manufacturers seem to dislike numericals or the proper placement of ins, del, etc.

MS has announced a new Sidewinder keyboard. Perhaps this is what you're looking for:

Logitech do a lot of cordless/wireless keyboards that are completely standard looking.

Generally, the more expensive you go, the more retarded the keyboards become!

In that case, you have the biggest laptop in the world.

Everything on the keyboard is the same size as on a normal keyboard except that it is thinner and without the numerical keys.
