Need a quiet keyboard

Deviqa · January 11th, 2007

I lead a guild in an online game so I type a LOT and my husband wants to find me a keyboard that doesn't make so much noise!!

I had a Dell one but it rattled alot so he bought me a cheap mi cordless keyboard and it's got the quiet part down but it sucks in every other way. Adding letters etc...

I don't care for cordless. I just want a quiet keyboard!!! Any suggestions?

I don't want anything ergenomic or anything where I'll need to pay like over $50 for a keyboard. Just quiet!!

Thanks!

My Logitec G15 KB is fairly quiet. The keys don't click when you press them. But if you were typing very fast and not looking to make deliberate key presses, it can get loud. Plus, it is backlit in blue.

Is the computer in the bedroom or something?

Earplugs are $.38/pair.

I concur with the Logitech series of products. Their keyboards are extremely nice, easy on the fingers and quiet to boot. =)

Thanks for the tips though, will look at those :)

most people have had great results with the eclipse.
i had 2 bad ones in a row, and they both died in about 40 days. NOT impressed. i'll let my money do the talking, and stick with logitech for the rest of my gaming days.

Thanko made a USB keyboard that makes less than half the noise of a conventional keyboard. Too sad you can't grab one of these over at newegg.
