Introduction
I have the pleasure of introducing you to a fine keyboard from TypeMatrix. Nowadays, keyboards come in many different sizes, shapes and colors. This is a truly unique and innovative device that you might
find helpful if you type a lot or suffer from an injury. Today, we have the TypeMatrix EZ-reach 2030 (QWERTY) Keyboard for review. I would like to thank TypeMatrix for giving me the opportunity to review
the EZ-Reach 2030, it's been a joy testing this out and I am proudly writing my review now with it.
First Looks/Use
By the looks of the box you can tell this thing is small. The footprint of the keyboard is:12.75w"x5.5h"x.5d".
As you can see the box is all white, with stickers on the sides with an EZ-Reach and a TCO 99 logo, also on one side is a sticker with the model number. Opening the box it's sandwiched in between pieces of
styrofoam for protection. Inside the foam you find the keyboard, user manual and a adapter to allow you to convert to usb and also connect your mouse to this usb line. The Keyboard all comes with a standard
ps2 connector. This seems smaller than a laptop keyboard and I do not have one to display a contrast between, but from information on their site it states you can place it over a laptop keyboard and not
cover the touch pad. Normal keyboards that featuring the QWERTY layout have staggered keys, but with the EZ-Reach 2030 the keys are in rows and columns that align perfectly atop each other. The first key
you notice is the Delete key because it is red and offset from the rest. Some keys serve a dual function with the use of a function key just like a laptop would. On the left hand side are the leds that
show you the modes that are functional like a normal keyboard, number lock, caps, scroll and it adds one with Dvorak.
