  6. dont bother wasting your money. youre going to regret it. no exaggeration. IMPOSSIBLE to type.

    dont get such a tiny keyboard.. unless you got E.T. fingers, its ridiculously hard to type.. just get a regular one...

    jst tap the keyboard 2 the table n some stains / bacteria shd come out. Otherwise - clean with wipes - like i jst did. Made it look as if it was fresh from day 1

    wouldn't that break the keyboard if u tap it against the table. i dunno. i just use alcohol wipes from time to time and that does me fine.

    lol i mean tap on its side...like that woman that showed the presenter on channel 5, when they talked bout this issue...

    never saw a woman talking about keyboards on channel 5 but i understand now, tap the side. i see. u could just use a vacuum and suck up all the dirt and then use an alcohol wipe to sterilise it.
     
  14. you guys cant just tap the keyboard or vacuum the feces out... you have to pop the keys and and wipe it with a solution of some kind..

    i try to clean the keyboard with a can of compressed air every so ofter...its quite amazing all the crap that falls into your keyboard...quite disgusting too

    the coating probably does not allow the bactiera to adhere to the surface of the keyboard so they can't grow on the keyboard. bacteria need to build their colony before they can continue to grow and increase in size and "infect" your computer
