Hi,

I am looking for a laptop styled keyboard. I am currently using a Logitech K120 keyboard at home and I seem to be getting some slight wrist pain using that.

At office I use a lenovo T420 laptop and I am really comfortable with the keys. The keys are much easier to press down and it has some space below the spacebar to place your wrist on, unlike on a normal desktop keyboard. I also dont get any pain when I use this keyboard.

I would like something similar to use at home. I also can type so much faster using one of these instead of a desktop keyboard. Anyone got any suggestions?

haha.. ok I'll look into the wrist pad.... :p

Is there any place where I can actually test a keyboard? does any outlet allow to try a keyboard before buying it?

I felt the exact same way (very used to my Thinkpad keyboards) so I bought this:

Exact same typing feel as the actual keyboards!

Got USB and wireless versions, opted for the USB one.

I bought it on taobao.com, I think it cost around $60-$65 not including shipping, not sure if it's available locally.

I think it's great because I don't have to adapt to a new typing layout when I move from my laptop to desktop.. haha!

I think you are looking for a package. Like a keyboard that has laptop styled keys and wristpad for your comfort.

I recommend you a good brand, and durable too..
Razer Deathstalker Basic Edition (no backlit) OR
Razer Deathstalker Expert Edition (backlit)

The basic edition will cost you around $100, or less.

Looks beautiful, like this.
