Quick specs

Something that immediatelly jumps to your eyes is the expected lifespan of the EL light. "Only" 3000 hours. That translates to 125 days if lit for 24 hours a day. As the value may seem low, it is actually a lot longer in real life use. That is because the keyboard have a build-in saver in it. It will automatically turn off the light if the keyboard is not used for three minutes. This will extend the lifetime of the EL sheet for a long time.

Multimedia & Internet

Here are the multimedia keys from left to right.

Sleep

First from top left we find a sleep button that sets the computer to... well, sleep. This is also one of the keys that I don't like that much. Partly because my four years old daughter seems to find that key especially interesting and is always hitting it.

Internet

Next we have a set of internet related keys. Back, Forward, Home, Favorites and Email. Good setup for this purpose.

Multimedia

Volume controls with mute and regular back and forward keys. All the essentials are provided to control for example Winamp.

Status leds

Thin black line hides the status leds of Num Lock, Caps Lock and Scroll Lock. You'll see the lights better in next images.
