But it looks nice and strange :D
Now I barely need to look at the keyboard while typing (still need to look once in a while though because I couldn't remember them all).
I encourage everyone to learn touch typing. It's a useful life skill, as well as helps expand your keyboard option.
They need to need to make a model that is full size, full function. I can't live without HOME, END, PGUP, PGDN, PRTSCR & PAUBRK keys. I use them regularly.

Make this in full size version and I'll buy one without hesitation.
For those interested, Amazon carries this model and it's baby brother;
