“Typing on the Edge feels like typing on a good quality laptop keyboard. Because the keyboard is so slim, there is little travel per keystroke, but Logitech seems to be very proud of the key switch technology, boasting about the PerfectStroke technology implemented in each key. We found that key strokes feel good, though no better than a Sony VAIO laptop. Still, in case it is a selling point for you, the PerfectStroke keys use 18 x 18 mm keys, with 3.2 mm travel and 60g activation force, and they should last for 10 million keystrokes. The strangest part about typing on the Edge keyboard was that we felt like we were typing on the desk surface, due to the low profile.”

“Overall, it has been a long time since I have been so impressed with a keyboard, let alone a wireless keyboard. Logitech gave the diNovo Edge the best of everything, best typing feel, best battery life, best recharge speed, and the best range. Simply put if you want the best wireless keyboard around, the Logitech diNovo Edge is it. The only draw back is the price; at $199 for the keyboard alone low cost is the only feature you will not get with the Edge.”

TechAge reviews the Logitech diNovo Edge (rating: 9) and writes;
“As a whole, this is a great keyboard. It has the looks, the functionality and superb battery life. I have been using the keyboard for two days now, and I haven’t touched the charger since it came out of the box. Looking at the SetPoint program to get an estimate on remaining battery life, it tells me that there is 24 days left before depletion. I am unsure how accurate this is and I’m sure it will vary depending on usage, but that’s a nice figure to see.”

ExtremeTech reviews the Logitech diNovo Edge and writes;
“While the TouchDisc does a great job controlling cursor movement, its position at the right of the keyboard makes it a bit tougher to press down on the left- and right-click buttons. On laptops, a touchpad is normally at the center, below the main keys. Your hand is thus positioned sideways almost, where your index finger can conveniently click on the left-click button without delay. Since the TouchDisc is at the right, your hand is more upright, and we had trouble deciding on clicking the buttons with our thumb or index finger. We still prefer using a regular mouse over the TouchDisc, but it does do an adequate job replacing the mouse if you’re in the living room, or simply want to save space.”

“One thing that impressed me particularly, is that I was able to effortlessly sync the keyboard with my G4 Powerbook. No drivers to install, and practially everything works, including the trackpad and the volume bar. Very cool…So who is the Logitech diNovo Edge for? I could see this being a sort of center piece for a media center PC in someone’s living room. Its incredible design definitely begs to be looked at. Also, with a $199.99 price tag, I’d say first-and-foremost, it’s geared toward people with a surplus of cash. Then again, that does seem like a reasonable price for, “The world’s most advanced keyboard.””

“There’s a great deal to love about his keyboard: it’s good looking, has loads of media functionality and is great for general use. The only real concern is the price which, even at the discounted £105, is still a steep for a keyboard. As a living room solution, however, the diNovo is perfect and you’d be hard pressed to find anything more suited to that environment.”

Bluetomorrow reviews the Logitech diNovo Edge and writes;
