Trust Keyboard reviewed - 5 out of 5

Last week I purchased the KB-2200 Multimedia Scroll keyboard by Trust and have been impressed with it.

First off, all of the multi-media keys seemed to work "out of the box" for me with Ubuntu linux 8.04. On several other keyboards that I have used, I had to spend 1/2 hour remapping the volume knob so this impressed me right off the bat. Speaking of the volume dial, it is large enough that it is easy to locate by touch without having to look at the keyboard.

Other than that, it does everything you would expect from a keyboard. The keys are responsive and do not stick, the spacing of the keys is small enough that I don't have to strain to reach the 't' and the 'y' keys, but not so close that it causes me to hit multiple keys at once, and the face is smooth so it shouldn't collect dust as easily as more textured keyboards do.

The only complaint I have is relatively minor - the backspace key could be a little larger. This fault though is not enough to lower my score from a 5 out of 5.
