Hi guys,

I'm fairly cramped for space on my desk, and thus am looking for a smallish keyboard to remedy this.

My searches have brought me to the Microsoft Arc Keyboard which looks nice and compact, but was just wondering on what peoples opinions are on it, specifically for gaming?

Obviously the arrow 'pad' means you couldn't use the arrow keys, but i'm a WASD convert anyway, but what about the key sizes, curve shape of the board itself etc?

Opinions appreciated!
 
From past experience I would stay away from any Microsoft made wireless keyboards, I have had 3 in my life and on all of them the wifi receiver broke.
 
From past experience I would say go for it, got 8 wireless Microsoft Wireless Keyboards at work and all have them have been spot on for 2-3 years.
 
Not used mine for gaming, I got the mouse and keyboard set purely for design work (work got them actually, ho hum) and absolutely love them. I think the keyboard would work well once you got used to it but not sure what multiple button presses are like when in FPS style games etc.

The mouse is definitely not designed for gaming though :)
