Info needed on Silent computer keyboards

[Poppy]

Does anyone know where I can get a really quiet or silent keyboard. Have seen silent keyboards advertised anyone know if they are any good or know a good firm to buy from.
No transport at the mo so will need to be online.

I think they must be like the ones on laptops, myself I prefare the ordinary Poppy as you seem to have to hit the key much harder on the lap top. I'm forever having to go back and enter letters which have not printed. to answer you question where to get one, well I would imagine PC World should have them

These guys might have something suitable, plenty of choice and good prices I think. I've ordered stuff from them in the past and it's always been fast delivery. You can ask questions about specific products as well. I think they are in Manchester but I've always ordered online no problems.

Why are you wanting one? Just me being curious. I have my PC in the same room as the TV and if I'm typing and someone is watching TV I usually get people muttering about me 'clickety clicking' - mind you I think my nails on the keys make more noise than the actual keys as I tend to type with the ends of my fingernails rather than my finger.

Thanks for all the help guys
I have bought one, looks like a recycled shower mat. Got it in Tod too, went to Edit the little local shop and asked the guy there.
Great bloke, got out all the keyboards for me to try. I never thought for one minute I would find one in town.
It is good because it is absolutely silent and is sealed so teddy fluff cant get in it, and I cant ruin it by spilling my coffee on it either.
I was always cleaning fluff out of my keyboards with a paint brush.

I am keeping my clunky board as well though.

I've just got one of these:

Eclipse II Backlit Keyboard - Cool Glowy Things

A little hard to type quickly as you have to press hard but I hope in time that will resolve itself with use.

I love mine now and it glows blue in the dark, you can roll it up and put it in your pocket, to take with you.
Though why you would want to I am not quite sure.

Sorry i'm telling lies, it was this one I bought: Light Up Keyboard - Cool Glowy Things

The soft material allows a quick sensitive typing action that is silent and more comfortable than traditional hard plastic keyboards, while the flat design allows easy typing without stress on your wrists.

Dont agree with that, find I sometimes have to press hard on keys to get them to work.
