Has anyone had trouble with the non-adjustable armrests getting in the way of the keyboard?

I never had any problems. I LOVE this keyboard. I lost it during a move. Thank you for reminding me. I will buy another now.

I've been using this keyboard for a while now, and I don't think there is any problem with the hand rest. Perhaps this images might give you an idea on how the hand rest is and hopefully answer your question. http://img.gawkerassets.com/img/182h9wwhdwfkdjpg/ku-xlarge.jpg http://allaboutphotons.files.wordpress.com/2011/09/p9185055.jpg As for the Shift Key placement, people complaint about this version, here is an image of the "EVIL SHIFT KEY". http://i2.ytimg.com/vi/AP_a_uT6RDY/maxresdefault.jpg And here is an image of the Sidewinder X4 I have. Which is the one you are currently thinking of buying ;D http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/81L%2BYvD63uL._SL1500_.jpg Notice that the Shift Key is cut in half on the 1st image... I assume people who bought the keyboard weren't aware that there are different versions (or models, which ever is right), for different people... so they complain... but the keyboard is not to blame :C

I have two of these and wobble is not a problem. However, I would think that wobble from typing would most likely be caused by an unsteady desk to which the arm would be attached.

I have found that if you place the opened keyboard on back face in a phone or tablet stand that it is much more stable and prevents it from falling over. Even the cheap plastiic stands will work. I can now even place the keyboard with the stand on my leg, while sitting down, without it falling backwards. I love the keyboard, but am stiil trying to find a work around for when it times out and trying to get it connected to the bluetooth again.

Sorry I never tried since I don't owe the Logitech kb. I rarely use the sleeve.

I haven't found that to be a problem but my desk is pretty wide. Ergonomically I think it's fine. Overall I've been quite pleased with the keyboard.

The space bar issue is one that can occur to the space, shift, keypad +, keypad enter and keypad insert keys. The problem is that underneath said keys there is a thin rod running across with 2 little plastic parts holding the rod onto the key itself. This supports the wider key size, but when one of the little plastic parts pops out of the underside of the key, it will block the keys downward motion and will not allow the key to depress evenly, as the rod is only attached on one side. You will hear a rattle if you give it a shake. Pay shipping costs and wait for Razer to click the key back onto its rod then send it back, or just do it yourself... The issue is bound to happen some day- I hope this will be of some use to someone.

it sits kind of unevenly on the arm of MY sofa, so use of the keyboard would be awkward and truthfully i'm not sure a keyboard would fit gracefully in the space provided because of the lip around the edge

Yes. They stow into the back of the keyboard at the top. They fold outward. There are only 2 settings: fully-extended or stowed. No intermediate adjustments. Fine by me.Nice & stable but fairly thin. If the keyboard were dropped any appreciable distance with the legs extended, they're probably toast. Love the keyboard overall but have yet to find the "caps-lock on" indicator light..........

The tray is not attached to the armrest in any way except the friction of the rubber feet under the tray and the plastic arms. I'm not small either, and there is plenty of room to put the tray out as far as I need. The problem is that there is nothing supporting the fold out arms that you rest the tray on expect for the plastic hinges, and they tend to crack and break after a while if you tend to pound on your keyboard. It takes months to break (unless you are REALLY hard on it), but break it will. It also causes the tray to jump up and down with the movement of the arms, which is a little annoying.

I use a wireless MAC keyboard and have a relatively light touch. Thus, there is very limited, if any, wobble. But I can see that wobble might be a problem if you have a heavier touch or use a heavier keyboard.

I have a MacBook Pro so don't have this issue - I suppose you could but then you would seem to be defeating purpose of the armrest which is to keep the computer cool.

I have average sized hands, so my advice might not be very helpful. But I have adjusted the palm rest to be comfortable using the lower three rows of keys, quickly sliding my lower palm onto the top of the palm rest to use the fourth. Therefore, I only ever assign keys I hardly use.

Mine is definitely tilting, and it has gotten progressively worse over time. I feel like I'd fall out of the chair if the armrest weren't there. I think mine had a defect when it was new, but it was minor then and I was too lazy to return. In hindsight, I wish I had.

I am sorry for what happened to your keyboard, but I have not had any problems with keys falling off. My only problelm has been the function of the keys with how one would normally type on the computer. Nothing breaking, cross my fingers.

They are not adjustable and if you remove them you are removing the back rest too because the armrests are what hold the chair together.
