I have this Adesso keyboard. On mine, the trackball has no trouble moving diagonally. I'm a writer, not a gamer, so my usage is different. I've tried the Arc, but it's terrible if you need to frequently access function keys. The Arc only has F1 through F6; you have to do an Fn plus those keys to get F7 through F12. The Arc does NOT have standard key placements for INS, has no DEL key at all, puts HOME and END at the top of the keyboard, and has no inverted-T cursor-arrow pad, substituting an award rocker for cursor movement instead; the Arc is all but unusable by a writer. I actually think the Adesso, with its matte black surface, looks much nicer than the Arc, which has a glossy, plastic toy-like look. Also, the reason the Adesso is thicker is that it has TENTING -- the keys in the middle are higher up than the ones at the edges,; that's a very good thing ergonomically. The Adesso also has (slightly) sculpted (concave) keycaps; the Arc's and the Sculpt's are flat. For touch typing, I find the Adesso much better than either the Arc or the Sculpt, and for ergonomics, the Addesso is much better, with its split-keyboard design, than the Arc which really isn't what most people think of when picturing an ergonomic keyboard. My main workstation uses a high-end ergonomic keyboard (KinesisGaming Freestyle Edge), which is wired and has Cherry mechanical switches, but for my secondary workstation, the Adesso, at 1/3 the price, is very nice indeed.

Thank you for your review! This helped me decide not to be the less expensive Adesso which seemed good at first. I need a quiet keyboard and have been happy w/my Microsoft Sculp until some quirky thing started happening w/the keyboard or computer thinking a key was stuck. The same key would be 'typed' and I couldn't stop it unless I minimized the window of whatever program I was in. I tried pressing Escape repeatedly, typing other keys, etc.; new batteries, taking out batteries and putting back in. It may be related to the plugin location of the wireless USB piece. So I'll probably buy another Sculpt. Thank you again.

Terrificallly useful review. I'm shopping for a compact curved keyboard, ideally wireless with a built-in pointing device, to keep on my kitchen table and use to comment on articles that I read on my 10.5-inch Android tablet. The Adesso is one of my three finalists. The other two are the Perixx Perriduo 606, which is similar, and the ThinkPad Compact Bluetooth keyboard with Trackpoint.

Thank you, that helped me a lot. I will not be buying the Adesso. I have been trying to get my trackball/mouse closer to the center of my desktop to keep from reaching out past the numeric keys on a standard keyboard. Left-handed keyboards are not popular, so I think the Sculpt as you recommend might work out. Do you have any updates or suggestions?

They are NOT Cherry or similar mechanical switches, as far as I can tell. But they have good travel (unlike either the Arc or the Sculpt), and mine is quieter (except for the right-hand spacebar, which has a rather loud hollow sound to it) than the video suggests.
