    Just bought a new wired keyboard with numberic keypad. It isn't flat and wobbles anytime I use the keypad, arrows, and even delete/backspace.

    I know that the keyboard has received mixed reviews in regards to manufacturing and quality but has anyone else had this problem?

    Want to know if I have a good chance of having the same problem if I return it and try another one.

    Thanks!

    There are four rubbery plastic grey studs underneath the keyboard. Two on the lip toward the top, the other two at the bottom. Are they all there and in place? Does it also do it on different surfaces? If so, take the keyboard back.

    Mine's fine, by the way.

    Yep, that was the first thing I check. All present and accounted for. Will probably make an exchange shortly.

    Like the keyboard a lot too...typing is a breeze.

    Ha, I've never noticed the studs before - I thought it just sits on the white plastic part! :D

    Yeah the keyboard is great. Surprising how good a "laptop-style" keyboard actually feels.

    It being the most pretty keyboard ever doesn't hurt!
