Is this a true Chiclet keyboard with scissor or higher grade switches, or just the style with a membrane layer underneath?

The style with the membrane. The software was horrible and profiles switched on their own without me doing anything to trigger it. The software also uses a cloud setup, so it is another application connected to the internet. The "on-the-fly" macro programming is a joke. I sent it back and got a Logitech G510s (also membrane though). But have had no problems with it so far (2 weeks), and love it.

100% membrane. I just took mine apart to see because I was seeing the + heads under the keys and got super excited! Can't say I am disappointed though, still love it.

I'm not sure,but I'm not having any problems like this other guy. Some places say it has scissor switches, but I haven't taken any keys off to check. It's a good keyboard IMO.

I do not know, but I would seriously look at other keyboards. This keyboard is absolutely horrible.

Kent...UPDATE to my Post under C. Watts - I was able to reinstall the keyboard and get the F5 key to work. While the quality of materials is lower on the current generation of keyboards, mine is working fine and the quality is acceptable. As far as spacebar issues and such, I think it's just a break-in period you have to go through. And truthfully, this is the best layout of a keyboard I've ever used. I use it every day, all day long and just would not want to be without the split design.

Yes the rectangular return key is fused with the |\ key above it, but that does not interfere at all when using the keyboard because it is a soft cover. :)

It's not cherry switches. It's a typical membrane keyboard, not a mechanical.

Thanks for the info. I deducted that from the many sources posting, but wanted to make sure. Ordered mine 2 days ago. I really like the ergonomics of the keyboard with the 'soft' keys.

It is like a standard keyboard, it has 2 feet that flip out, they are pretty sturdy. That is how I use it.

It is, for me at least. The keys feel more responsive, more... travel and spring to them (hard to describe). It also seems to have a little more spacing between the keys, or at least it feels like it does. One other detail I like is having the numeric keypad on the side when I need it. All-in-all, absent the solar charging issues, its a very good keyboard (IMHO). I hope this helps.

Yes. All keyboards featuring Cherry MX keys are designed that way, as far as I know.

I can't really answer your question. I don't have knowledge of how the keyboard was designed. I only purchased one like the one you got, but mine arrived broken with the metal cover on top of the keys loose and unattached. Therefore all of the workings of the keyboard was visible. I returned it the very next day. Sorry I couldn't be more helpful.

I got the white one with light champagne aluminum trim. Keyboard dock is light champagne aluminum. Looks very elegant. Obviously I liked that better than dark blue.

It is not a silicone keyboard. The keyboard (as to be expected is small) and I do pretty much ok with it.

Pretty much. Like most of these things, it cannot compare to a full suze keyboard, but it's close.

It is exactly as the picture, Monica. A fused and reversed "L" shaped key cover covers both the [Return] and [| and \] keys. But, I have not had any problem with typing them separately. It is just a soft cover.

These are full sized mechanical keys, not Cherry MX. Alot like oldschool keyboards but still nicer quality.I've been very hard on mine and it is holding up like a trooper. Best thing about it is can choose any color for backlight and the volume wheel feels great.

It is a wired keyboard. I would not recommend this keyboard. I have had my for 7-8 months now and the labels on the keys are wearing off already. Also, while the width is ergonomic they have made it harder to reach the number keys at the top as they have added an extra row of keys on the bottom compared to other standard keyboards.

I have the same preference for keyboards. This one, which I've been using for many months is definitely heavy. The key feel is somewhere between the soft feel of most modern keyboards and the older ones I really liked. I find it acceptable if not ideal, but I'm not a touch typist. The key travel is about 1/8 inch. Hope this helps.
