    First of all, I ought to point out that I’m using this in Linux, so software support might not be up to par for all I know.

    I bought this because I liked the compact PgUp row while still having a full Numpad, and because it was cheap. On that end, so far so good.

    Keyboard is a little loud — not a huge issue, but a little loud. Key travel is a little worse than it should be; I’ve had cheap keyboards before (I used a Rosewill for years before this), but my usual typing habits are causing keystrokes to go unrecognized a little more often than previously (couple times a day), and I’m actually pretty sure this is a mechanical rather than a wireless issue. Minor, but frankly shouldn’t be a problem in 2012.

    Mouse works well as long as you don’t turn sensitivity up too high — then it starts having acceleration issues from a dead stop (but works fine after it’s been moving for a fraction of a second). Again, I’m in Linux, and my sensitivity bar is pretty long; this mouse defaults to the 0 position, and I can’t move it more than ~15{b81fbfd19e1fca5890798868c0714c408bbd5ec471654b6f9630c0fffa6e7eb3} of the way up before it starts getting shaky. 15{b81fbfd19e1fca5890798868c0714c408bbd5ec471654b6f9630c0fffa6e7eb3} is actually fine for the amount of travel I expect, though.

    Not impacted much/at all by range, which is good — my computer desk is in the corner of my living room, and sometimes I use my PC to drive a projector, in which case I want the keyboard on the coffee table. Works just fine.

    I’d gladly have paid $10 more to get the same compact keyboard with slightly less cheap parts, but on the whole, I’m satisfied.

    Bought this keyboard & mouse combo for my Raspberry Pi and it worked out of the box. No problems at all so far. I’m very satisfied!

    I only use this keyboard for simple gaming, internet browsing, and music. The mouse is a nice fit to my hand, although it is smaller than expected. If you want a large mouse, buy a separate one. The mouse and keyboard work perfectly. They are both very slim, and have a great look to them.

    Perfect for my couch while watching movies on my computer!
