Recently purchased the HP Wireless Elite Keyboard with a pleasant surprise upon arrival.
It is an amazing engineering feat that has graced my computer table with more whistles and bells that you could imagine.
I was expecting a "plain-Jane" keyboard and got a "movie-star".
It is more than socially acceptable to the computer, ease of adaptation and install time a bare minimum required.
Say goodbye to the wire and clear out your work area too.
I bought an additional one for my lady friend, to share the joy of ownership.
extreme high quality and bargain priced....don't pass the chance to get one (or several).

Way sleek... My new favorite keyboard. March 18, 2010
Steven A. Hoinka (Frisco, Tx)
Extremely sleek keyboard! If you're into streamlining and/or simplification, and don't need a thousand knobs and buttons that you'll never (or rarely) use to make you feel good about a technical purchase, this is the keyboard for you. Wireless works flawlessly. Keys are soft and quite. If you install the software you get full, "extra" keyboard functionality... Function keys, volume control/mute, computer sleep, CD/DVD eject, etc. It is a bit flimsy. Not fragile or crappy-flimsy, just not as durable as I'd like. If you travel a lot or are hard on your keyboards, I'm not sure how it'll hold up. I'd prefer it to be made sturdier, more like the Mac slim keyboards with aluminum support, but other-than-that, I can't see or imagine any ways to improve. It's by far my favorite keyboard. Even though, I referenced the Mac keyboard durability, I prefer this keyboard in look, feel, and functionality over my Mac's. I'm not a big HP fan, but this keyboard is incredible!
Awesome battery life; great look; annoying blue light. March 11, 2010
A. Howell (Seattle, WA)
This keyboard was exactly what i expected. However i had been flirting with it for some time at my local best buy. Has a great flat feel to it, super thin and i really cant stress the flat feel. However the keyboard clicks more then i thought it would, i was expecting a smoother sound when i started to use it day to day. Also you have to be very careful. As the smallest crumb in your keyboard can cause a key to not press down enough to register. I thought my keyboard was broken, till i realized my girlfriend at toast in front of the keyboard, a can of air, and tapping on the back of the keyboard, and it was good as new.
The only really really really really annoying part i can see for this keyboard is the USB receiver has a blue light on it. so EVERY TIME a key is pressed, the blue light will come on.
The keyboard has a excellent response time from keypress to key input. I game quite a bit already with this keyboard, and it is amazing.
They keyboard also has some what of a over grown remote feel in your hands, it is full size. However it is so thin, that when you take the keyboard away from the PC, it feels like your crazy massive remote.
The keyboard does not have lights on the keyboard for caps lock, numb lock etc... and the included software does not have any sort of PC heads up for this function either. As a matter of fact, the software is simply just a battery monitor. I have emailed HP already about this and requested a feature addition to the next version of software for such functionality. However there are plenty of third party peaces of software out there to facilitate this sort of notification.
The best recommendation i think i can give to this keyboard. My roomie used it for just a few mins (he has a mac laptop.) and right after he also ordered one for himself.
Over all a great keyboard, awesome battery life, only draw back i can see is the lack of notification of lock keys and a blue light of doom on the USB receiver that can be easily covered with 1.5 inches of black tape.
Great feel, not so reliable March 10, 2010

Cons first. I'm currently using my second Wireless Elite keyboard. The first one died in a coffee spill. I've spilled a lot of coffee on a lot of keyboards, and this was the only one that couldn't take it, even though it wasn't an especially bad spill, even though I turned over the keyboard and dried it off immediately. It's supposedly spill resistant, but there are little holes in the bottom, under the feet, into which whatever spilled on your desk will seep when you flip over the keyboard to spare the keys. So don't flip up the feet to dry under them!
Also, the letters wear off. This seems to be a typical HP problem for the past few years, but it's worse than ever in this case. The labels began to wear off the keys within weeks. If you don't touch type, this could be a problem for you.
Sometimes the keyboard won't respond, particularly when using resource-hogging applications, despite the fact that I still have loads of RAM available. Sometimes it just forgets it is paired with the dongle, but crawling under my desk and re-seating the dongle fixes that. And sometimes it just can't keep up with how quickly I type and it drops letters (I type over 100 wpm, so this may not be a problem for everyone).
BUT! All that and yet I love this keyboard. It's flimsy, it has a silly program that shows in the Systray if your caps or number pad are locked, and it sometimes seems to run two copies of itself (which clears up on reboot), and I paid way too much (prices are coming down fast but I sure got reamed when I bought mine). Yet I LOVE this keyboard because it's so low profile and the keys travel so little and are so responsive that I can type for hours and hours each day, everyday, nonstop, without my hands hurting. That's worth just about anything to me, and that's why I put up with all the rest and smile and think about getting a spare in case I should, I dunno, think watery thoughts of rain or rivers and kill this fragile thing with the power of my mind.
If you type a whole lot and your hands don't love you for it, this keyboard might well be the one for you.
Great keyboard March 9, 2010
Ted Clark (Newbury Park, CA)
I love this keyboard, even though I no longer use it on my main system. Great feel, same as a high quality laptop. I've since started using a Logitech Dinovo because of the touchpad, but would gladly use the HP Elite again.
