hello

can you tell me please a keyboard with as many as possible customizable keys at left up or down side of the keyboard

the best would be to be splitted in two halfs and have a touchpad and some basic keys like ENTER, DELETE, etc betweet the two splitted parts of the QWERTY

also a plus is to be slim (like notebook's keyboard)

thanks

Logitech has several keyboards with extra customizable keys. None are the split "natural" type, and none are cheap.

Logitech G15 - 6 programmable keys on left, plus display.
Logitech G19 - 12 on left, plus expensive display.
Logitech G110 - 12 on left, no display.
Logitech G510 - 18 on left, plus display.

For a thin laptop style you can try the Razer Lycosa. Also not cheap, not split, and no extra keys. I use this with a Logitech G9 Laser mouse.

I almost would say Microsoft Sidewinder keyboard, but, it's crap. I used it for some time but after fixing the contact layer part several times I went back to a simple Logitech keyboard. Fixing that keyboard also void the warranty. Also the keys didn't hold their paint, but I could have lived with that. It would heave been the perfect keyboard for you IF Microsoft used better parts in it...

This keyboard promises to be the most customizable keyboard ever, but it is also out of mostly everyone's price range:

it doesn't have many custom keys

For that kind of price I think I can hire someone to type for me .

A few nice keyboards (and NO, not that many custom keys):

You can reprogram every key with their software.

For plenty of keys to program, I like the Logitech gaming keyboards
