Rating: - This is it...
Standalone mice are so last century! This is just about the perfect keyboard. I highly recommend it. Only thing missing is backlighting/illumination.
Rating: - Good idea, poor quality
I've just bought and received this item from amazon (August 25, 2008) and the quality is much lower from what i would expect on a $90 USD Keyboard.
I'm having problems with the touchpad on this keyboard that i never had with laptop touchpads, like the mouse pointer moving randomly through the screen just before i click on something or at the edges of the touchpad, even with the latest drivers from Lenovo or Synaptics.
The trackpoint buttons below the spacebar do not always work and sometimes i have to click them very hard or multiple times for them to work.

Compared to the grip that is required to actively control a mouse, the TrackPoint requires pressure from only one ... Read More

I've purchased two of these. On both of them, the left clicker (keyboard section) is intermittent. Sometimes I think I need to keep a hammer close by.
I had one replaced via Warranty and the replacement had the same exact issue so I can only think it's a design issue.
It's been 2 years since I bought one. Has this issue been resolved?
Rating: - great keyboard, where is the WIRELESS version?
as the others have said, this is a great keyboard, particularly if you are accustomed to or like the Thinkpad touchpoint keyboard environment. the keys have enough travel to make it feel like actually typing.
my only complaint is that this is a perfect keyboard to have a wireless version of. its light, easy to use, and you dont need a mouse. I have a wireless mouse and keyboard in my living room for use with a media center PC attached to my stereo and flat screen monitor and if this keyboard came in a wireless version I could eliminate my need for the separate mouse and keyboard and ...
