Kensington Slim Keyboard

I need a new keyboard because a few keys on my Zippy Slim keyboard started dying. I have a very small desk so I need a Slim style keyboard. I've heard good things about Kensington and was looking into this: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16823155003

Has anybody used this keyboard and have experience with it? Or does anybody else have a better suggestion for a Slim keyboard that's high quality?
 
I've been using that exact keyboard for about 5-6 months now and love it. The keys are very responsive and I'd not hesitate to buy another one.

The only bad thing about the keyboard is the layout, but obviously the space-saving has to come somehow. It didn't take long to adjust.
 
Kensington doesn't actually make keyboards - perhaps you could find the same for less under the OEM's name. I know A4Tech makes some for Kensington but I don't see one like that from them. Perhaps Silitek/LiteOn, etc. Looks sort of like the I-Rocks...

Thanks for the input, I'll try to figure out who manufactures for them!
 
Yup, either the I-Rocks makes the kbd for Kensington or they are both made by the same OEM. I see the distinquishing characteristic of these keyboards is that the inverted-T arrow keys are offset (dropped down a bit) from the other keys on the bottom row.

i have this keyboard. been using it for about a year. yes, kensington does not make this. in fact you can see other rebranded ones that look just like this on newegg.

having the \ key in that location next to the space bar sucks. I hate havnig a sleep key on keyboards, and this has one.

but, it's responsive, and still works. It's quite worn, some of the lettering wore off already, as has the plastic textured top.

i am looking for a replacement, btw.
