I miss my number pad! Otherwise, I"m pretty happy |
This is a really great keyboard, and it looks slick on my coffee table! The aluminum wrist rest is slightly cold to the touch at first, re-iterating the nice materials used. As far as gadgets go, this is a good one to have.
I got this thing several weeks ago and haven't had to charge it since the day I got it (the manual says 60 days, so we'll see).
As far as keyboards go, here's my take on it: it takes some adjustment if you're used to a full 104-key keyboard. I'm still not quite there yet. The lack of number pad made me realize I won't be able to enter "Alt+#" keystrokes anymore, which I previously did almost daily. The keys do feel pretty nice and it's a solid hunk -- heavier than I expected. It DEFINITELY does NOT feel cheap in any way.
The touchpad kind of sucks. It works in general, but it's pretty small, the left click button (on mine at least) doesn't work very well, the scroll doesn't work that well at all, and occasionally I will find the mouse pointer somewhere else on the screen suddenly because it got confused.
The hotkeys are pretty nice. I was very pleased to find out that they work even when Windows is locked with a password! I was also quite surprised to find that they actually controlled Winamp the very first time I used the keyboard. I'd personally rather have separate buttons for these hotkeys rather than pressing the "Fn" button, but to each his own.
If I had paid the retail price for this, then I wouldn't think it's worth it; however, with a sale price AND a mail-in rebate, it was a pretty sweet deal and I like what I got. If you're willing to spend the money on it and like having high-end things, then this is something you will probably like. HTH :) |

Logitech diNovo Edge review |
|
I have been really happy with my purchase of this wireless keyboard. The operation is second to none. It is easy to use, smaller than any other keyboard that I have seen and nice to look at. I would recommend this keyboard to anyone interested in a wireless keyboard. It is worth every dime. Thanks. |

AMAZING! simply... amazing... |
I was sceptical about this keyboard, especially when i read some of the negative reviews (I always take them into consideration first) and so when it arrived i held it, and just the size and feel gave it 2 stars. I let it charge overnight and the next days when i begain to type with it I was instantly happy with my purchace.
The keystrokes are perfect, i can type faster, and don't ever remimber second guessing myself while typing. The keyboard is thin and light, so when i go to eat i can easily move it, eat, and move it back, it has to be one of the most convienent features about this keyboard.
I don't use many of the other features, but for someone who needs a number pad, or uses the play/pause/forward/backward buttons, this could be tedious, as you have to press the inconvenintly placed fn button followed by one of the F buttons to access it.
I recharge it every week just to be safe, but it has never even indicated that it was anywhere near running out of batties. this baby can hold a charge.
I have no problems with it, but the price is a bit steep and there are some features that might aggrovate some other people, which takes a star away. |

diNovo Keyboard - not bad, but not Oustanding either |
Got the keyboard, it looks amazing. I set everything up and installed the software. When I placed the keyboard on the stand, the lights on the keyboard came on, but then the battery indicator started flashing red. I just figured the battery was low and would charge over time. I then started checking out the Logitech software (SetPoint) and discovered that the battery had an error and would not charge. I called Customer Support and was sent another one. After checking the internet, this seems to be a common problem.
As far as my review, the keyboard works well. It has NO number pad - would be outstanding if it did! The issue with the battery highlighted a problem I see - the battery is NOT replaceable. The problem here, I have had batteries fail, yes even Li-ion that this keyboard uses. So, if the batteries fail, the keyboard is dead. It would have been real nice if the batteries were accessible to changing, just in case they do fail. |

Good quality but a few quirks |
I have been using a BTC 6100C Ultra Slim Multimedia Keyboard. I have a relatively small desk surface, never use the numeric keypad on a keyboard, and so I appreciate the small footprint of these mini keyboards. I tend to scrape off the lettering from the BTC key caps, though, and wanted to find a better quality replacement. The diNovo Edge fits the bill. It is slightly larger than the BTC, but still smaller than a full-size keyboard.
I use the keyboard with Fedora 5. Surprisingly, everything works except the volume slider and mute button. I'll be upgrading to Fedora 8 soon, so maybe they will work, too. One criticism I have is that the touch pad does not seem very responsive. Sometimes it doesn't even seem to respond at all. I don't know if that's a Linux thing or inherent in the keyboard design. Also, the mouse buttons could have been placed better. They would have been more convenient if moved to the left a bit so that they would fall directly underneath the thumb when the index finger is on the touch pad. |
