This keyboard was perfect for my needs - except that it's too noisy. I earn my living on the computer and when I'm typing the clacking noise goes right through our house and can be clearly heard from behind closed doors. The result is that I can't work when my partner is sleeping. No amount of padding underneath seems to cut down the noise, so I'm replacing it with another brand which will hopefully be quieter.
I can see that a loud keypress noise would be helpful in some types of disability but I don't need it. I wish this feature had been mentioned in the reviews that I read.
As I said, it's otherwise perfect - I have no problems in seeing which keys I'm hitting (unlike with a 'normal' keyboard) and my 'fat fingers' no longer result in messy typos; I no longer have headaches and eyestrain from squinting at the keyboard. But I can't live with the noise.
