Installation, Testing and Comparison

Installation is easy, just plug and play, Windows XP recognizes and installs it automatically.

Here’s a comparison picture of the Mini Flexible Keyboard next to a standard keyboard, you can see the Mini Flexible Keyboard is actually quite small, and pretty much perfectly flat.

Using the Mini Flexible Keyboard for a while I noticed that the keys are much farther apart than any other keyboard I have owned and/or used. The keys being farther apart actually make typing slower, and typing for long periods does seem to stress the fingers, as they are not used to the longer traveling distances. I guess though, that after a longer period of using the keyboard you will become accustomed to it and using it will be easier. So there is a longer period of adjustment, than when switching to other keyboards.

I did find though that while gaming, the keys being farther apart is actually sort of a good thing, as you don’t accidentally hit the wrong keys. So it does work very well for gaming actually.

The keys are very soft, and the key press actually seems longer than other keyboards, I also found that you don’t necessarily have to push them squarely down, you can hit them from the side as well, they kind of move in all directions.
