I've got a few key criteria:
Range - I'm getting an MX Revolution which I hear has solid range; I'd like the keyboard to have a range of at least 3m reliably. My current cheap logitech set has a tendency to have dropouts if I move more than 2m from the reciever, which is useless for me really.
Media Keys - Through my eclipse 1 and 2 keyboards, I realised I actually used these buttons a lot; so ideally I'd like a play/pause, fast forward and rewind button on the keyboard, your standard stuff.
Layout - I'd like a standard layout, full-sized keyboard, the FN key puts me off the otherwise well reviewed Keysonic 540 after experience with my old laptop.
I'd also liked tiered keys rather than laptop keys as I find them much faster and easier to touch type with. (as in the keys are raised in levels like a normal keyboard, not flat like a laptop)
Price - really dont want to spend any more than £50, ideally I want to spend half that!
Thanks in advance, any experiences/info welcome, I know you can't mention other shops, but I'm sure I can hunt for models myself
PS. I did look at the black 612 Keysonic OcUK do, but apparently it has range issues, which the 540 model doesnt (shame
