The Office Keyboard

Okay, first of all, I'm going to answer the number one question which I know is on everyone's mind right after seeing the keyboard for the first time - What the heck is that thing on the left???

The scroll wheel

This, my friend, is a scroll wheel! That's right. They actually put a scroll wheel on the keyboard. Now, why would you need a scroll wheel on the keyboard when you've already have one on your mouse?

Well, after typing several pages of text, you may decide that you need to refer to something on another page. No problem. You just have to lift a hand off the keyboard and get to your mouse to use its scroll wheel. A little troublesome, don't you think?

Now, with the scroll wheel on the keyboard, you don't have to hunt for your mouse. You can quickly reach out and flick the Office Keyboard's scroll wheel to similar effect.

It might take some getting used to because this scroll wheel is MUCH looser than the one on most mice. That can be a good or bad thing depending on your preference. You can adjust its sensitiveness in the control panel as if you are adjusting it for your mouse. It's just a hunch but I think you will need to install the Intellipoint software first.
