Yeah... I was looking at the keyboard.

What happens if you drop it?

It looks very thin... almost like a foldable keyboard for PDAs and UMPCs.

Just... don't. They are too expensive to risk finding that out. Actually, they are built out of a single thick sheet of perspex with an aluminium backing, so would think they are pretty tough, but I would still not be letting my kids near it...

They are very thin, yet they have the key travel of a normal keyboard. They feel very nice, and the built in cursor controller is pretty nifty. If you need a number pad though, you might want to give it a miss, as it doesn't have one. Logitech make some good shit, even if it is a tad expensive. The MX revolution is a very nice mouse, and compliments the DeNovo edge nicely (combine the two of them and you are looking at over $500 AUD, which could get you a lot of cheaper keyboards, so you would want to have money to burn to justify the expense of it all).
