To cut things short &#8211; it&#8217;s crap, rotten, bad, junk&#8230; Did I forget to mention that it was really bad? Hard to control, no battery saving so it had always ran out of juice, keys repeated when they shouldn&#8217;t (and didn&#8217;t when they should). Let me know if you are interested in purchasing mine \ud83d\ude09 The drivers I just tried downloading are from August 2006, so not updated since I tried it.<\/p>\n<p>I hence do run a normal corded keyboard and a normal corded mouse. It&#8217;s NOT convenient, but I have managed so far.

Sandberg produce a lot of high quality accessories, and I would then hope that this keyboard with tochpad meets the standards I normally expect from Sandberg.
