    The zboard is fairly sweet alright. B*tch about the language on the keyboard.
    And the crowd who build those keyboards on PC-look are french so no chance of english one.

    Must get some reviews of the keyboard. Found them on amazon for 15pounds - she could be gettin me a set of headphones too at that price.
    Ha ha ha ha ;)

    Ive a Zboard and there pretty sweet, dont use the gaming keyset much but the regular 'browsing' keyset is very usefull with a lot of very usefull features. You could do a lot worse for a lot more money.

    The Z-Board is the greatest waste of money ever.
    All it does is create new key layouts for you learn and fumble over each time.

    Get yourself a solid Cherry QWERTY and feel the Gs.

    Apparently azerty keyboard are way more efficient, in x number of keypresses your hands will move 5 miles on a qwerty keyboard, in the same ammount of keypresses on an azerty keboard they will move 1 mile.
