The new version is a little smaller than the original but just as comfortable. The new version also has padding for the wrist rest. Many programmable functions. Once you use this key board you will never go back to a traditional one. Try it .................... you'll love it!

I purchased the previous "comfort" model when in graduate school to ease my wrists while typing. I think this model is improved both in ease of touch, mouse accuracy and wireless connection. Very happy with it in editing in graphic programs as well. Once in a while the mouse will get "buggy" but am not sure if that is because of the computer or wireless connection. Overall am very happy with the devices.

Very easy and fast to set up. The ergo design is the best-no more neck and shoulder stiffness!!! Only a slight change in the design, but a huge difference. And no more wires all over the desk either!!! Better pricing than the 'big box' stores and mach speed shipping. I'm very pleased with everything about it.

I have been using computers since 1970. That means I have a lot of experience using different keyboards and mouse. I've had the programable keyboards and used them to the fullest to enhance my production. Let me say: THIS KEYBOARD AND MOUSE HAVE ALL THE PROGRAMMING BUILDT INTO IT. Two fingers on my left hand are partially paralyzed so there is no feeling in them. That makes it difficult to feel the keys and cause a lot of errors on a normal kekyboard. This particular keyboard has all but eliminated those problems for me. Because the keys are a little larger and layed out a little more dynamically for comfort, my accuracy is fabulous. If you have typos frequently, because of misplaced keystrokes, you must try this keyboard. In the past I would purchase programmable keyboards to speed up production. This one is already programmed to the hilt. One keystroke can perform many options that normally call for browsing and multiple strokes. If you take the time to learn what they do, you will never regret it. With one key, I can perform a spell check or another key will print screen. Another will take me to my home page on the internet. The list goes on and on. Try it. Now for the mouse. I have always complained and fought with the cords attached to the mouse and keyboard, no more. I do not care If I have to replace batteries, which held me back for a long time from trying it out. I was always pulling and shifting the cord so it would not hinder use of the mouse. Now I do not even think about it. It too is enhanced with extra features. I have learned to bump the side of the mouse to easilly go back a page. It is larger and has a nice fit. Also sensitivity has a maximum amount of programmable sensitivity and speed. I love it too. I must admit there are two issues I do not care for. To turn off the mouse, you must remove the USB chip and attach it to the bottom of the mouse. Otherwise it will drain your battery while not in use. The second is range. If I wanted a keyboard and mouse to use for wireless use on my television, this is not the right choice. It only works within 3 - 5 feet maximum from the USB chip. I do not know what more to say. Purchase of this simple, inexpensive keyboard and mouse has set me free. It has increased my comfort, speed and throughout production. I will never go back to using a mouse or keyboard with a cord. Now you can save yourself a lot of research and testing by getting this set. It has a satisfaction guarantee. David, the lazy and obsessed business man.

Guess I didn't read far enough through the fine print before purchasing. Wireless keyboard and mouse don't work w/ Windows XP. Also, no way to turn off without removing wireless unit from computer and inserting into base of mouse.. Basically had to rip through packaging to extract mouse and keyboard, so unable to return to HP. Anyone want to buy a never-used keyboard/mouse?

Love the keyboard, is lightweight and had great features. Mouse is awesome! Works great on any surface I've tried so far. Beware however, there is a bug in the driver that overrides the volume slider bar that is on many HP laptops. Everytime you use the bar to adjust the volume, turn the wireless radio on or off or use the mute button an Excel spreadsheet will open ( if you have MS Office installed on the computer). I've had up to 12 Excel instances open from one use of the slider bar. So far no fix available. :( Had to return the item due to this issue. However was disappointed as I really liked the set.
