Picking up a new keyboard.

[LOG]

I'm looking for comfortable, very ergonomic, reliable wireless range probably wouldn't have to be more than ten feet, probably more like eight, and I don't want to spend much more than $60.
I'm not even really sure about ergonomic, I have a wrist cushion I can use, so I'm not sure that a keyboard with some sort of built in plastic thing would be all that much more helpful.

Any suggestions you can make from personal experience would be great.

Otherwise if you're interested I'm mainly looking at the following:
HP - Wireless Elite Keyboard (http://www.bestbuy.com/site/HP+-+Wireless+Elite+Keyboard+-+Black/9352666.p?id=1218089773731&skuId=9352666) (Mainly worried about the height.)

Logitech Cordless MX Duo (http://www.amazon.com/Logitech-Cordless-MX-Duo-967300-0403/dp/B000095ISG) (Rather expensive...)

Dang, you pay a lot for a key board. I have wireless and paid like under 30.00 for it. it is a Logitech brand. It's not the first of this brand that I have had.

There are several 'sizes'. At the store you might see how far you fingers are at rest.

My keyboard is the cheap tesco's own brand and wired to boot. Too much expense all those batteries. And the keyboard was under a £5. :)

Try these online shops. They tend to be cheaper than other places, have customer reviews, and sometimes free shipping.

I have this one and my love for it knows no bounds. It's extremely low profile, but not uncomfortably flat. You mentioned CTS so I don't know how it will affect that, but I (normally) spend most of my day typing and I've had no problems of that sort. Mind you, I do get up, take breaks and stretch things out, so that may contribute to my lack of CTS issues.

It's a very light touch so you don't have to push too hard to get the keys to respond. The reliable range is at least what you're looking for.

I'm really picky about keyboards, and I have to say this one was love at first type. It's got a really great feel.

Plus it's spill-resistant. :D

I'd go around to shops locally, and ask to try one. Seriously, the feel of the keyboard is a very individual thing.

Some of the larger chains will let you take home a loaner for a refundable deposit.

No way! What if some dude with a porn addiction takes it home for a spin and returns it? Speeeeeew.
