Installation, Testing and Comparison

As I mentioned already this keyboard is USB, and no drivers are needed so installation is very easy just plug and play.

Here’s a picture of the Silm Keyboard + Num Pad next to a standard sized keyboard for comparison:

From the picture you can see it is a fairly small keyboard so it should fit nicely in anyone laptop bag if need be.

Using it was a bit difficult at first, but after a few hours it got much easier, except for the space bar, it seems a bit too small, like it’s out or proportion with the rest of the keys.

The keys themselves are small and of course I found myself hitting other keys, but any new keyboard does take time to get used to.

The keys are actually fairly quiet, and the key presses are soft and short making it easy to type very fast on this keyboard.

Having the numeric keypad is a nice extra, I often use my keypad, and hate not having one…
