Logitech Cordless Desktop Wave

"Ergonomic keyboards have been around for some time, but they’ve mostly curved upward to accommodate longer middle fingers. Logitech’s new Wave keyboard does the opposite, curving downward to cradle your hands as you type. Whether it’s innovative is debatable, but it’s certainly comfortable. The package is rounded out by a slick, ambidextrous mouse and a host of features that are quite useful, especially if you’re running Windows Vista."
Keyboards are a very personal thing and I am surprised how many people just stick with whatever came with their computer rather than trying some of the nicer Logitech and Microsoft products. This one sounds pretty interesting and I'll probably give it some hands on time if I see one in a store. Something the review mentions, but does not take issue with is the lack of indicator lights for Cap Lock, etc. I found this kind of odd and it would probably be a deal breaker for me. I've always used wired keyboards (for security reasons) and wonder if the lack of lights is common to all wireless keyboards.
