The feel of the Datadesk keyboard is great, in my opinion. After trying
it at home as a non-ADB, I bought them for the 2 SEs at work.

A couple times on both machines, something locked up on the keyboard
and produced garbage characters. I was really glad that I had the mouse
alternative to save and quit. Rebooting was necessary to restore its
sensibility.

Today I find that I need the control key, so I don't consider the
Datadesk a viable alternative anymore. Also, I can't recommend their
software for programming the keys. I got Quickeys and quickly forgot
about the problems with their init. One outright problem was with the
Lookup spelling checker that you never hear about anymore. Turning on
the function keys with Lookup installed produced a system bomb every
time. With Quickeys, you don't have to turn on the keyboard to use it.
