Okay...
Logitech diNovo Edge
Worlds first rechargable keyboard!
This is apparently the first ever rechargable keyboard. It has a charging base, and from what I've read it's truly mind blowing! So, you put it on the charger for about 5 minutes, and it's charged for the next couple of hours (this is all from memory from where I read somewhere). If you charge it for about 2 hours, I think it's basically charged for 1-2 months or so. Now that is outstanding!
Another awesome thing is the Touch Disc. So you basically have your mouse and keyboard in one, meaning you can take it where ever you want, and still have full control of the computer. I think this keyboard was more designed for the lounge room, as some reviews suggest.

Also take a look at . This guy's a home user and not one of those review corporations, which is good if you just want to get the thoughts and opinions of an everyday user.

One thing that a lot of people seem to be disliking about the diNovo Edge is that is has no Num Pad Yeah... that's something that's discouraging me a little, too! Other than that, this thing is looking so beautiful! I want one! LOL!
But it doesn't stop there. I took the liberty NOT to be stubborn enough to buy the diNovo Edge straight away, and see what other similar keyboards there were around that might match up to it. The only thing I could find close enough was:
Introducing the first ever rechargable back-lit keyboard!
This one really does have me drewling almost as much as the diNovo Edge It's got one thing that the Logitech keyboard is missing, and that's the backlit feature for the keyboard. That would make it so much more handy in the dark. If the diNovo Edge had a backlit keyboard, I reckon I'd have it by now.
YouTube reviews:
Couldn't find much... the only one I could find was in some other language - German, I think, lol! In fact, I haven't been able to find much in the way of reviews for this keyboard.

I'm really looking to buy one of these tomorrow... probably off eBay. I'd really love all the help I can get to decide on which one would be best, if any. If you have another suggestion, please, by all means, let me know! I'm not about to waste over $200 just for a keyboard that I might not have looked at close enough - you guys might know even more than me in this case about these keyboards.
Who knows... maybe it's best just to stick with a standard $20 one... after all - it only needs to type for you... oh, and play games! LOL!
Oh, the reason why I referred this situation to buying a "brand spanking new car" is because those top notch cars with all those awesome features aren't really necessary... you just need a mid-range car that will drive you places, yet have decent enough stuff to keep you satisifed (ie. Air Con, Power Steering, etc.)
Hope you guys can help me out on this one Sorry the post is so long
