Adesso ergonomic keyboard for Mac.......2007-12-21
I have been using the keyboard for about a month now with no problems
The new mac keyboard is next to impossible for anyone with large hands to use
Once you try an ergonomic board you will never go back
There are better keyboards out there!.......2007-12-13
There is very little for this company to be proud of about this product. It is Mac friendly in that it has all the same buttons as my original keyboard, which is exactly why I chose it online. If I could have felt how light and cheaply it was made, I would never have purchased it, which is my guess as to why I didn't see it in any of the stores I shop in. Also, the power button doesn't work at all on the keyboard. The other functions seem to work well enough, but as far as life expectancy, I give this one 6 months to a year. My last PC ergonomic keyboard was built like a tank and lasted so long I wore the bumps of the f and j keys. I have recently found a Microsoft keyboard that is Mac compatible and as soon as i find a wireless one, I'll buy it - even if I do have to configure buttons. This just makes me wish Mac would develop an ergonomic keyboard! The one that came with my Mac was very sleek and well made, but I really need the ergonomic one. The Adesso has got to be the cheapest keyboard I've ever touched and I'm 43. So don't be suckered in by the cheap price, you will definitely get what you pay for or a little less.
Great keyboard.......2007-12-11
Great, long-lasting keyboard. This is the second one of this series that we've bought and we'll likely buy another one next time we need an ergonomic Mac keyboard.
keyboard.......2007-12-10
The keyboard does not perform what it says it does for Mac OS-X. The function keys do not work, yes I did install the software that came with the keyboard. Disappointed!
Not for me.......2007-11-26
This is the second ergonomic keyboard I've owned. My previous one had a similar shape and style, but it got too old, so I upgraded to a new one.
Pros:
--The angle difference between hands is very comfortable for me.
--I like the split space bar.
--The two USB ports is a plus.
--The shape and style in general is comfortable for my hands.
--Most of the extra buttons at the top are very useful (back, forward, stop, refresh, search, favorites, web/home, media controls, mute, volume, close, print, stickies, Sherlock2, Mail, calculator, sleep, power).
--Adesso customer service was very prompt, efficient, and friendly.
Cons:
--The keys are very stiff. When I bought this from Amazon, it arrived with a Delete key that was stiffer than the other keys. I contacted Adesso and they very promptly replaced the keyboard with a new one.
However, while the Delete key was now the same "stiffness" as the other keys, all the keys in general require more hand strength to press than my old keyboard, or even the generic keyboard that came with my other computer tower.
After eight months of using this keyboard, I've finally given up and bought another one. While I don't have wrist pain, my typing speed has slowed dramatically and my error rate is high because of the stiff keys.
The key stiffness might not affect someone else, but I've come to dislike it in the months I've owned this keyboard.
(For my new keyboard, I went to a local electronics store and tested out the keyboards they have on display. I decided on the Microsoft Natural Ergonomic 4000 because it felt very comfortable to my hands.)
Product Description
The Adesso Multi-Media keyboard will provide you the most efficient, productive, and personal keyboard. The keyboard has Hot Keys; these Hot Keys are special shortcut keys that provide quick, one-press access to frequently used functions (such as Web, Calc, Volume, Volume, Outlook). You can browse the Web, start e-mail, play media, adjust the system volume - and more - all at the touch of a button. Using Hot Keys can increase your productivity because you don't have to take your hand off the keyboard as frequently - to use a mouse.
Customer Reviews:
I almost got mad when I opened the package..........2006-11-03
The reason I got this was because it had a usb connector but when I opened the package it had a standard connector. Not to worry it was an adaptor that simply unplugs and wala usb. So I let my bloodpressure simmer down and come to find this is a pretty good little keyboard. I love the way the keys snap right back - perfect key pressure.. There's lots of fuctions and the keyboard is well laid out. I'm using it for my laptop which really enhances the experience. I can finally let out my typing ablity. I don't know about the durability yet but I can say for the price that I am satisfied and don't expect it to fall appart unless I abuse it. The led lights are really bright red which looks kind of neat at night. You know the ones that let you know if the caps are on or the number lock. I don't usually give cheap things 5 stars but hey if it's a quality product that's all that matters.

Terrific Little Speaker with Clear, Strong Sound.......2007-09-07
After reading several dozen consumer reviews describing laptop speakers I puchased this one. You simply plug it into your laptop, or USB hub, swivel the gooseneck to position the speaker where you want, and you've got an excellent speaker that fits in a small laptop utility bag.
The only complaint I have is that there is no quick volume control; once you've plugged it into your USB port, it overrides the laptop's volume control "knob". You have to open the volume icon in your Control Panel every time you want to adjust the speaker volume, which can be too slow when you're being blasted by a loud video.
This is not to say that there is anything wrong with the volume modulation in the speaker itself, just that there seems to be a wide volume range across items I view--YouTube, email messages with videos from friends, etc.
If this speaker had a volume control knob it would be perfect!
NOT RECOMMENDED FOR DELL LAPTOPS.......2007-09-02
After several weeks of light, mid-volume use, the speaker stopped working on my Dell Latitude D500 and I began receiving error messages noting a "device malfunction". After trading emails with J-Lab customer service, I was instructed to return the speaker by mail (at my expense) for a refund. The refund I received was 80% of the original purchase price because, according to J-Lab, the device was still "working" upon receipt. The representative handling the return acknowledged that there has, in fact, been a history of compatibility issues with Dell laptops-- in other words, a "working" speaker may not always operate correctly when connected to a Dell laptop. Is trying this speaker on your Dell worth the risk of paying two sets of shipping charges, losing 20% of the purchase price, and spending time emailing representatives and repacking/mailing the device? If not, maybe it's worth considering alternatives.
Are we listening to the same speakers?.......2007-08-08
We bought this speaker for our Gateway M505 Media Laptop on a recent trip. The M505 has reasonable speakers for a laptop, but their volume level isn't quite strong enough for us to be happy--we'd always find ourselves straining to hear dialogue from movies.
From reading the reviews I honestly thought this would solve our problem in a nifty self-contained USB-powered fashion.
For us it didn't.
We found the speakers to be nearly identical to the M505 speakers, and while the B-Flex did give us the tiniest improvement in volume, it wasn't enough to really give us adequate volume, or the "big sound" many reviewers have mentioned. Also, there is no way a speaker the size of these can give the kind of frequency response any level of audiophile would be happy with.
So, who should try out this speaker? If you have standard tinny sounding laptop speakers (the almost nonexistent kind), these will be a big improvement. Also you will like the fact that it is USB powered so no batteries, no cords are needed.
However, having said that, I really think the bottom line is, to get truly better sound, you need to use a powered speaker. I think some of the JBL's may be the way to go.
For cost of these guys, unless you catch them on sale, my advice is to keep looking. We had to return ours. (Thanks to Amazon a really fair & generous return policy).
Definite improvement over stock, and extremely portable.......2007-07-08
My boyfriend bought me this speaker. It is plug-and-play. On my computer, often movies are not loud enough for some reason and with this speaker it's as loud as we could possibly want. Also I can blast my music throughout the house from my laptop - before I could not because it sounded horrible at high volumes.
I'm not much of a sound expert, but I think it sounds pretty good.

Average sound.......2007-03-22
Unless your laptop's soundcard is not working, or your speakers are barely hearable I wouldn't recommend this. Odds are your laptop does as much as these speakers.
It is well built, looks resistant and it does a decent job. Do not expect very good quality.
Like it so much bought it for a friend........2007-03-08
I like the sound of mine so much I bought one fo my friend for his birthday. It's not super loud but you can listen to music from your mac, with good quality. Just plug it into your USB port. My friend loves his too. He uses his all the time. Great for travel.
Works perfectly........2007-01-30
Speakers quit working on my laptop and needed something decent and easy - and this is better than that. Good quality considering size and price.
Lots of power in a small package.......2007-01-19
I really thought the reviews for this item were probably a little over-blown, but the speakers have proven me wrong. As someone who primarily uses their laptop on the go, I have been looking for a set of small, easily transportable, decent sounding speakers. These fit into all three categories. I am pleasantly surprised by the fullness of the sound that they put out. If you're strictly an audiophile, you'd be better off investing in a good set of Bose headphones, but if you need something to quickly and efficeintly plug and play so other people can hear what is on your laptop, then you won't find a better buy for your money.
Cool!.......2007-01-13
It was a gift to my daughter and she was thrilled! We were all amazed at
the "out of the box" design and think that the folks at JLab need to expand and create a whole lot of new "out of the box" stuff to make life
easier and more efficient! And, the speaker sounds GREAT!

Customer Reviews:
This is NOT an SDHC Reader.......2007-09-01
I purchased one of these specifically for SDHC. When it arrived I tried it, and regular SD cards work fine but an SDHC card will not. My SDHC card is a Transend 8GB that works fine in the Nokia N800 tablet, so I have no doubt about the card. Regular SD cards and the SDHC cards slide in when inserted into the Nokia. A regular SD will slide into the slot on this PQI product but the SDHC will not. There is a very slight difference in the SDHC card but it can slide into one of my other standard SD readers that cannot read SDHC. So the slot on this PQI Reader is a problem. Since the SDHC card cannot fit in the slot I have no way of knowing whether the device will actually read SDHC cards. Only a green sticker on the outside of the package identifies the reader as SDHC, the package instructions do not include SDHC, and the plastic reader itself has markings on the various slots without mention of SDHC. I presume that whoever put that green sticker on the box assumed that this device could do SDHC. The price is cheap, but if you buy this expecting SDHC you may be wasting your money, because the only refund you will receive will be an amount slightly more than what it costs you to ship it back. The shipping and handling will not be recovered and that amount almost doubles the cost of the product. Like me, if you buy this you are likely to waste your money.

Customer Reviews:
Great for what they are.......2006-08-19
These speakers are excellent for what they are. Most USB powered speakers require two cables, one for the USB power and one to plug into the sound input of the computer. This one sends the sound information over the USB cable; great for transportability. It is basically a midrange speakers, which is true for most computer speakers, and does not have a tweeter, which is true for all but the most expensive computer speakers (I consider most computer speakers horrible since they have not brightness, which is OK for games, but not for music). Most laptops have horrible speakers, which are small and do not provide much sound. This fixes the problem. I can now hear the sound from the computer even in noisier environments. This speaker also extends to give much better separation along with making it more compact.
Horrible.......2006-02-15
There is essentially no sound amplification. The sound levels are barely different with the thing on as opposed to having it off. Sort of a "what were they thinking" product.
sounds worse than the laptop speakers.......2004-08-18
The builtin speakers in my laptop sounded better and louder than these speakers. The Sony's highs are muddy and the volume does not go very loud (yes my laptop volume was all the way up). If you want extra laptop speakers for your presentations with clients look elsewhere. All we wanted was a decent quality sound that was a little louder than our laptop speakers and these speakers definitely did not deliver and will be returned. If you need ultra portable sound and your laptop speakers are broken or sound much worse than average laptops (we have nothing special), then maybe this would work for you.
Speakers stopped working days after warranty expired.......2004-07-31
I am an instructor. I needed a speaker system with a very small profile for international air travel. A friend of mine, who works for a major computer company, recommended these due to their size (though he did warn me the sound quality is average).
The speakers are indeed small & light - and they conveniently fit into my computer bag.
The sound is average, as I was warned.
The UBS connection cable is too short - which is an inconvenience.
But most disturbingly, the third time I used these they stopped working properly. Unfortunately it was 2-weeks past my warranty period. Their malfunction may have been a coincidence, but under the circumstances I cannot recommend these. Even when they did work, the sound wasn't up-to-par.
Do yourself a favor: look for an alternate model (there are many choices out there, in prices that range from $30 - $80). Just remember to go with a USB-powered model (USB power is a MUST!).
