Home > Consumer Reviews > DSI 2.4GHz Wireless Keyboard with Touchpad, Black, RK-728

I have a wireless system and the idea of separate board and mouse on the couch are ridiculous to me so I've tried several of these keyboards with pointing devices built in. I have to say this is the best one so far. The Media center buttons are great and probably the strong point. The cons are the key return and layout are horrible, if you touch type you will see at least a 50% drop in your speed and accuracy. The Touch pad it's self is quirky jumping and hanging, I find I have to actually bang the unit to get it to go back to normal, and you often have to re-sync with the dongle, which is a pain. But in the end it's cool and it works, maybe I'll get better on the touch typing but it's been several months so I doubt it.

I was ver excited when I ordered the prduct. I opened the box and was very happy with the stunning look of it. It was really easy to connect with the vista and very responsive too. No issue with the same. But now comes the disaster. Keys are so HARD to type that I had to use backspace like crazy and had more spelling errors than ever in my life. Touchpad is also not the greatest. Sometime it will response too fast or sometime you will wonder, is it sleeping or what? And now final insult to injury.. It STOPPED WORKING on 4th day of use. I tried to cange batteries, changed USB port, etc and nothing will turn it on. But I am glad that it showed up within 30 days return period and I got my money back. Good luck if you still consider buying this. And pray that it doesn't stop working after 30 days return period is over!!

this keyboard has some very nice features, but it is very hard to push the keys down, and the keyboard is cramped. also there is some delay on the touch pad, not much, but fine movements are hard. this is a great keyboard for use with a media center, but not for your primary keyboard.

I think the thing works pretty good on the whole, but sometimes I need to I do need to give it a little shake/angle before it works (no big deal). The other thing that is a little less than optimal is that the button on the back that is used to set it is a bit touchy....too easy to hit if you let it sit on the leather couch. I ended up putting a little bumper around it to keep from hitting it inadvertantly

I bought this for my HTPC and overall I think it's a great buy. I like the touch pad and there are left and right buttons on both sides of the keyboard, which turned out to be nice. I don't like that the wireless radio seems to be in the right-most part of the board and when I hold it in my hands, sometimes I interfere with the radio and have to move my hand. Other than that, works great! Battery life seems to be okay too.
