need good keyboard

ok so my mom does medical transcription as a business and has used the same keyboard for about 10 years now and the spacebar is finally giving out, so i am looking for a keyboard that has a good bounce in the keys and will be able to hold up to constant abuse...doesnt need bells and whistles...just a number pad and standard keys in it...just looking for one that has good feel and bouncy keys (no short keys like u see in some slim design) and no keyboards like u would find on a laptop...i know its picky but hey the faster u go the more money u make

thanks for any suggestion...price range is whatever...am willing to pay more for quality but no more than lets just say $100 but remember i may be able to stretch a little i understand u get wat u pay for

thanks for any suggestions!!!

I'll go you one better. How about one for under $30?

I am also very fussy with keyboards. Always used the very best wireless Logitech models. Not cheap, but great. Then I had trouble on one of my systems with the bluetooth connection and after looking around I decided to try the Logitech 600. Liked it so much I bought two more - just as backups for other computers. I think it's great - and as I said, it's cheap. Here's a link: http://www.amazon.com/Logitech-920-000021-Access-Keyboard-600/dp/B000O656FE

Oh - and if you don't like it (and I'll bet you do), there's no better company than Amazon when it comes to returns.

Personally I like the ergo keyboards
They take a little getting used to at first but I can really fly on it and they are really comfy too.
I never get tired using one.

is there any lag time with that wireless....cuz i know ive tried one other wireless keyboard and it was almost like the screen had to catch up to what was typed soo just wondering

and are the keys in that keyboards shorter? like do they raise all the way up...cuz i would rather not have a keyboard with shorter keys if u get what i mean

Gotta agree with Eyesee. If a lot of time is spent on a keyboard as it would seem your Mom does then Ergo is the way to go. After a little learning curve they can`t be beat.

Wrist strain and fatigue are real. A well laid out work area set around an Ergo keyboard will pay dividends.

A good quality wireless mouse\keyboard should not suffer from lag. I know many who play FSP games using wireless. They would be the first to complain if a good wireless suffered from any lag.

this is true...they would be the first lol but ty for the replys...any of u use an ergo keyboard that u like a lot or know of any really good ones?

I like the Microsoft ones. The keys have a good feel & arent mushy.
I tend to wail on my keyboards pretty hard and have a very unorthodox typing technique & they work well for me.
It takes a little getting used to at first. You have to figure out where to put your hands.
Once I got used to mine I can really go on it.
