Rating: - freezes the computer
The keyboard freezes the computer a lot of times. Plus there are lost of missed keys when typing and the connection dies from time to time. I gave up after having to reboot the computer from freezing. I switched back to the wired dell keyboards that came with the computer.
Rating: - Defective space bar
The LX710 keyboard/mouse combo has an excellent 5 year warranty but it didn't last 5 weeks. 3 weeks after purchase the space bar on the keyboard stuck in the down position rendering the keyboard useless. All of the keys feel mushy and don't provide any tactical feedback to let you know they have been sufficiently pressed to engage. There is also no audio feedback (like clicking) on the keys that one would expect to find on a quality keyboard in this price range.

Logitech Cordless Desktop LX 710 Laser When I purchased on 11/24/1008 cost was [...] with a promised rebate from Logitech of additional [...].
Product extremely easy to install - just plug it in and start working. Keyboard has a little too many extras which I strike by accident but can live with those inconveniences for now.
The promised rebate (Amazon furnished form) did not materialize. It appears that the company with a Phoenix address went belley-up and Logitech asked someone else to handle for them. Their automated telephone for checking rebate gave me information on TiVo I purchase from Amazon. I lowered from five stars because of the poor support where there is no "live" person to talk to - it must all be accomplished by e-mail.
If i had known of the poor support and the difficulty in obtaining the promised rebate I would have purchased a less expensive model without all the frills that I don't need anyway.
Rating: - nice keys but poor range
This is a good keyboard in terms of ease of typing, but the wireless range is lousy, only about 4-5 feet with line-of-sight. Further away than that, the behavior is erratic. It has some useful added buttons for controlling audio/video playback, zooming in and out of websites, etc...
Rating: - Not acceptable
The keyboard lags terribley. It will barely work if you have it too close to the wireless reciever. The Mouse lags terribley. You absolutely cannot play computer games with this or you will want to break your computer. Maybe I just got a bad one though....other than that, everything else is fine.
