    I'm only doing it because it doesn't say "optional" like normal.

    NEVER!!!!

    I use a wireless 10 key and a G13.

    Have to have wireless 10 key for PFA.

    It is fine as long as you have a keypad like the g13. (LLL has one)

    I wanted back-lit and small. My list has had like 30 keyboards on it for weeks.

    Just make a decision already!

    They have been very clear on MTC that it is always optional. They don't pay us enough to write anyways.

    It is hard to track down what keyboard that is but it looks like a scissor switch. There are loads of good 10keyless mechs if you ever feel like trying that out.

    It will probably break in a week.

    If you want something that won't break from heavy typing you should prob get something with cherry mx switches. (they feel better to type on anyways tbh). I mean unless you like going through keyboards like candy lol

    Stupid question of the night: I moved PC over to the worker site. Working beautifully, finally catching things again. However... for a while this morning I had both sites running. Wasn't paying attention. When I grabbed pandas I grabbed them from the old site because that's what I mainly use and where most pandas off the forum link to. Later I shut down the www panda. I'm just now realizing that there is no way that I see on the worker site to add a panda off of a hit directly?? I've already closed and restarted it. Am I missing something? (ANd yes, I'm still showing ability to panda off of the old site)

    I agree, but again they did give me that $10 bonus yesterday for send a simple note/suggestion.

    I am always interested in new tech. As long as it's semi compact and a decent battery life. This one claims 300 hours without back-light, so a couple days mixed use I would guess.

    Crap RA slow down! I tol you my eyboard borked! I can't keep up with you on this thing.

    Show me some examples if you feel like please.

    I've had the same wireless apple keyboard since college. I don't know how it's still functional tbh. I've dropped it, I've pulled it out of the mouth of a dog, I've typed and typed and typed on it for 8 years, this baby is still going somehow.

    afaik the pc helper script that adds the buttons doesn't work on worker. You can add group ids manually using the add job button, but there won't be panda and once buttons on worker.

    This one was a combo and the mouse died 6 years ago. LOL.

    The thing I like so much about it is that the Home, Page up, Page Down, and End buttons are stacked on the left edge.

    If you are in the market for wireless keyboards I wouldn't have any specific examples but if you asked in this daily? (or weekly I can't remember) thread you would likely get better help than any of us could get you. Just mention that you are looking for a 10keyless that is wireless and hopefully someone will help you :dunno:
