What is your favorite keyboard?

Maybe its just a $10 generic that came with your computer.

Maybe its a $10,000 wireless, ergonomic, projected, waterproof with multimedia keys and an integrated toaster oven.

Maybe its even still vaporware (hint hint, optimus...)

If you don\'t really have much of a preference, just post whatever keyboard you\'re using right now.

I-tec virtual laser keyboard.

OK, so it doesn't click, but it would sure impress people down at the local Internet cafe.

I really can't wait to see an optimus keyboard. They look pretty awesome.
Better yet, I want to see the next generation of optimus type keyboards. Once OLED technology really gets good and is applied to things like keyboards and other peripherals, I imagine we'll see some crazy stuff we never thought of before.

along with keyboard,surle you look forward to have a new designed mouse.
Outside of the keyboard, a mouse is the most important input device for any PC. For the most part, the form factor of most mice has been pretty uniform. The amount of buttons, wheels and type of tracking may vary, but the shape is relatively the same. Today’s product takes a different approach to the PC mouse. The USB Finger Optical 3D Mouse is a new approach to a familiar peripheral. Just as Nintendo tried to revolutionize game play with their Wii controllers, this mouse tries to evolve the PC mouse that we know and love. Is this mouse the next phase of development or and evolutionary dead end? Let’s find out.

I agree that almost any keyboard that does not have an L enter key is usable. After to location of the Esc (vi) key and the | (pipe) key not having a L enter key only the force of the keys is an issue. I have not seen a membrane keyboard that was terrible.
