This is by far the best Home Theater PC (HTPC) keyboard on the market. I just sold my BTC keyboard that was recommended by a snap stream BTV review. In truth BTC makes good HTPC keyboards, but for my configuration (usb extender over cat 5 with a ASUS P5W-DH) this keyboard solved some of my major BTC issues associated with drivers being lost on resume from sleep/standby. Logitech also has much better customer support BTC. Overall, if you're builing a HTPC spend the money and get this keyboard (it will save you a lot of configuration headaches).

It's very thin and stylish. Good built quality. When the switch is turned on and all the orange/amber control buttons light up... wow... one word: COOOOOOOOOOOOOL.
(No, the keyboard itself is not backlighted)
The keyboard feels good (I'm 4-year user of a Thinkpad), and the battery life is quite long - the longest usage is about 4 hours and there are still plenty of juice left. I use it as the keyboard for HTPC keyboard. The design of itself also compliments a lot to the entertainment center. It's the perfect keyboard for HTPC - with mouse and keyboard integrated together - what a smart design! There are also customizable buttons.
It's plug and play - no need to install the software at all (on a XP Pro SP2), unless you need to customize the buttons. One thing amazed me is that it even works in DOS mode. Actually to be precise it's in BIOS config screen. I don't know how that bluetooth USB adapter (comes with the keyboard) gets the BOIS to recognize the keyboard and mouse!!
I got it in good price and there was $[...] rebate. But it worth spending $[...]! I really love it.
There was one time I had problem with it - keyboard press seems not sent until I move the mouse. I just power it off and back on and instantly it's working. It doesn't bother me.

I am very happy with my new diNovo Edge Keyboard. Since I am a former classical pianist, I am very sensitive to the keyboard action, and this is what I like most about this product. It takes very little movement to depress the keys, and the action is even and smooth. However, I have owned this keyboard for about a month, and am still getting used to the slight change in spacing from my prior IBM keyboard (especially the onces that require reaching with my pinky), so I am making a lot of mistakes.

I bought this as a replacement for an old (but good, I thought) Gateway keyboard. This is the best keyboard I've used in my 30 years of using computers. Well built and for me it's the Rolls Royce of keyboards. The fact that it is a smaller layout works fine for me. I have average sized hands that fit very nicely on the soft touch keys. Plus it is a classy looking piece
