Logitech Media Keyboard 600

I have just purchased a Logitech 'MX400 Performance Laser Mouse' (see my review) and was recommended to get a new Logitech 'Media Keyboard 600' to go with it. I'm glad that I followed the recommendation as I'm now enjoying both new mouse and new keyboard, they being a great advance on what I had previously. So far as the keyboard is concerned, features additional to what I had before are a great bonus. I can now 'play' with my iTunes library from my keyboard, alter the sound volume, and switch to 'mute' when the 'phone rings much easier. In addition, I can open up my E-mail system without clicking on it. I suppose that there is more that will come to me in due course. The keyboard has certainly got all of the attributes that I think I want, but its most attractive features are its design and excellent handling - typically good from Logitech - and its smart black stylishness: the thing looks very good on my desk and makes a very pleasant change from the old-style and once-ubiquitous 'computer cream'!

good solid unit ,seems to do everthing it is surpose to do, easy to usethe only thing is i have windows 7 and the drivers on the disk arn't conpaterble with 7 also you cannot find conpatble drivers online.apart from saying all this seems to work fine

can not get the thing to work. I tried the disc, and online. my son who is very good with software can't get it to work on his pc. Both pc,s say there is nothing wrong. ???????. will send it back of all the things i have had from amazon this is a FIRST..

Excellent keyboard, with a price to certainly match. I wanted to get my dad something for Christmas which I know he would actually use, aside from the Bourne trilogy I purchased on Blu Ray 3 years ago which are STILL in their cellophane wrapping collecting dust.I wanted a keyboard similar to the one he already uses, which is described as 'Logitech Media Keyboard'. However upon looking on Amazon, and many other websites - it seems as though this has been discontinued. The old keyboard was probably around 30% larger, with nice soft rubber buttons for volume control (not the twist knob on this model). Their was also nice zoom in / out buttons for his failing eyesight. Also missing from this keyboard.All in all, the keyboard is what you would expect from Logitech. A nice, low profile device capable of doing whatever it is you need it to do. It looks nice, feels nice (although I did notice the keys were not as 'U-shaped' as the last model) and is very responsive.I would have loved to have treated him to something a little more 'media-like', as I have mentioned some things are missing / not as profound as the last model, but then again the prices seem to go up like the price of petrol.If you want something that is cheap and cheerful, order now you will not be disappointed. If you want that little bit extra, I'd advise you to hold out and save. Even then though, a tenner for a keyboard that could very well last a year or more is not to be sniffed at.

The product description says:Expansion / Connectivity* Connections: 1 x USB - 4 PIN USB Type Aand says elsewhere what the keyboard to computer connection is.There is no USB expansion port and I ordered it because of the Iogitech brand and the expansion port. i am sure Amazon would take it back, but I urgently need a keyboard and don't have the time to go through the returns process so I am keeping it. I have to say its no better than keyboards that are a lot cheaper.Either Amazon or Logitech have made an error or at best the description is misleading. For me getting the web description right and understandable is important. I don't want to spend my time on returns because of clerical errors, no matter how good the returns policy is.

As a totally blind computer user, I found this keyboard very easy to get used to. Yes there are a few things where you wouldn't expect them, but I got used to it in a matter of minutes without any help from a sighted person. the keys are very pleasant to type with, the multi media buttons and volume control are easy to use, and the keyboard design is very pleasant in shape and texture. I have a Windows 7 PC, just plugged this keyboard in, switched the PC on and Windows 7 did the rest, no need to manually install drivers at all! I'd reccomend this keyboard to anyone. The item arrived exceptionally quickly - given the time of year it was totally unbelievable how quickly it arrived! Securely packed in a good quality cardboard box and padding.

I bought this keyboard on the assumption that the picture was correct. I am currently learning programming so " is used alot and in the pic it is above the ' but on the keyboard its actually above the 2 Ie. not UK layout. Really fustrating as my laptop keyboard is the other way. Not impressed. Other than that I think the keyboard works well and the keys are easy to press.

I read some of the negative reviews before I bought this but thought, "what the hell, at this price I can afford a punt". Yes the layout is a bit different to some other keyboards but I soon got used to that. Set-up was simple and it is very responsive. The hot-keys work well and again are easy to set up. I like being able to easily control the volume as I switch from speakers to headphones. I reckon this is a good keyboard at a great price.
