Technology: Microsoft Wireless Comfort Keyboard

I've had this Microsoft Wireless Comfort Keyboard for some time now (seen here in a rare QuickCam picture). It is not my first wireless keyboard, though it is my first comfort keyboard, I think.

Gone are the days where most keyboards responded with a satisfying click and clack as the keys bounced back with solid confidence. The comfort associated with this particular keyboard is likely a combination of the facts that the keys have a somewhat frustrating, gradual give to them, and that (as you can see) there is a gentle curve to the layout, presumably to help with the inevitable onset of carpel tunnel syndrome.

My particular keyboard also, and perhaps this is a function of its being wireless, seems to have trouble with registering double keystrokes, no matter how much I meddle with the Keyboard Settings in Windows. Hence, when I attempt to type "good" it often comes across as "god." (Not that I mind the error all that much, but it would be better if the result were capitalized.)

Recently, almost on a whim, I bought a new keyboard: the Belkin ErgoBoard Pro Keyboard with USB Ports. I am certain it is my first ErgoBoard, though I did once own a Microsoft Natural Keyboard Pro, so it's not my first Pro Keyboard (or Keyboard Pro). It was not completely a whim that brought me to the the Belkin keyboard, as I rather liked the split keyboard design of my old, and the left-hand flip-out riser on the underside of my Comfort keyboard is broken (I have it in place with blue sticky-tack) and, as mentioned before, the keyboard doesn't seem to be as responsive as it could be.

So, now I have this new keyboard, still in its box, with receipt standing by, and continue to use the current, slightly shoddy older one. Shall I keep this keyboard currently under my hands, operating almost satisfactorily despite its defects, or shall I change to a keyboard that has at least one additional practical feature which would be nice (the USB ports) plus the added features of not being wireless and having a split keyboard?

Stay tuned...
