Summary: This is a 107 key, keyboard with 3 keys in the wrong place.
Review: If you want to try out a classic Belkin 104 key keyboard, they do make one. It's the Belkin 104 key F8E206-USB Classic Keyboard. See:http://catalog.belkin.com/IWCatProductPage.process?Merchant_Id=&Section_Id=100&pcount=&Product_Id=22227# I wish manufactures would stick to standards and make a good basic keyboard before they try to get fancy!

Summary: Most TERRIBLE KYBOARD I HAVE EVER USED
Review: Terrible, annoying - can't stand it! First of all the PrtScn, ScrollLock, Break buttons are moved where Insert, Home, PageUp are supposed to be . . . The nonsense doesn't stop there. There are Wake, Sleep, Power buttons where PrtScn, ScrollLock, Break are supposed to be. So if you are used to a normal keyboard, when you try to press Home or PageUp you are actually hitting ScrollLock or Break. What's even better is that when you hit the button, supposed to be Pause/Break you are actually hitting a POWER button, which TURNS OFF your computer instantly and you LOSE unsaved data!!! Happened to me twice. Another annoying thing is that if you type too fast this keyboard will sometimes beep and omit a character. It also cannot handle several keys pressed at the same time, which makes it useless for games. If it was not in my office I would have smashed it into little pieces by now.

Summary: Ordered two - one arrived broken
Review: This keyboard appeared at such a great price (97% off) that I had to get two. For that price, it's difficult to complain at all - but for those of you who weren't able to snatch up that deal, I would still consider this item. The keys are a bit noisy - a bit of clicking - but more silent than the keyboard on my Vaio laptop. I especially like the "Power", "Sleep", and "Wakeup" buttons, however I have yet to get the "Wakeup" button to work properly. The wrist rest is removable, and the black design is classy. The adapter will work on a newer 6-pin or an older 5-pin connection. There are no instructions included with this keyboard (i.e. explanations of the hotkeys), but the plug and play compatibility was good. There is a help menu once it's working. My only complaint was that the space bar on one of my two keyboards ordered was stuck - and customer service has not been helpful in replacing the item. Other than that, I would recommend this keyboard.
**UPDATE** After using this keyboard for a couple of months, I decided to lower my rating. The keys take thought to use, and frequently enters double characters. It's VERY ANNOYING having to backspace constantly to fix the doubles. Even when I adjusted the keyboard speeds on my control panel, it is still a problem. Grrrr.
