It was supposed to be a 'free keyboard' with sort of software attahed (that was going to be hacked off 5 minutes after I got it).

Has anyone gotten one of these things? Mine simply has not shipped. : (

I got mine about 2 months ago. Haven't had a chance to plug it in yet.

Grr--- I have not got mine and their 'help email' only sends me automated 'we got your request for help' messages. : ( The 'ship date' listed is July 6th.... no year mentioned though.

They might have bumped you to the second shipping group later on. So don't panic, it will eventually come.

Mine shipped on the same day, and to this day nothing.

I got mine early in June.. it's still sitting in it's box, as a backup keyboard.. and if I keep playing Diablo II and smash my keyboard when I die, I'll need it earlier than expected..

peace,

Guys, my ship date was June something or other and we just got ours about 2 weeks ago. Sometimes they take quite awhile, obviously! lol You should get yours, so...

I'm pretty happy with mine. I don't use the links at the top at all (if anyone knows how to personalize them instead of keeping them how they came, let me know!) but the keys are pretty quiet--not a lot of clacking like some I've had--and it's a nice regular size (I've seen some that are smaller.). Good luck all!

Got mine back in May. I had to wait a month to get mine. It comes with software and registry hacks work fine. I am currently using it. One of my buttons goes straight to gotapex instead of the aol channels area.

I use mine all the time too. Seems better quality than most keyboards i've paid money for. The only complaint is the cord is too short for my setup but that is easily fixed with an extension.

Also if you want to 'hack' your keyboard just do a search in these forums. It was posted a month or two ago.

You think there's been a delay on YOURS? My ship date was May 29th and woohoo big surprise it was NEVER shipped! I just sent in another request for info--they now cost 19.95. Ya RIGHT i'm going to pay. I'm enjoying my new microsoft keyboard just FINE. =)

signed up twice on the internet and it never came. Then I went to the Del Mar Fair and, lo and behold, they were giving them away to everybody. I was kinda pissed since I had signed up months before. Now I run Windows 2000 so it's pretty much useless.

I got mine, but I want to know how to hack the registry...I saw it posted, but like a dummy I didn't print it out.
