With automatic backlighting and hand proximity detection this sleek, comfortable keyboard delivers a brilliant typing experience day or night. You can type easily even in the dark with brightly backlit keys that provide precise illumination. Only the characters are illuminated, so you can see just what you need to see without distraction. The keyboard automatically adjusts the backlighting to suit the lighting conditions. Or you can adjust it the way you like it with the press of a button. Sensors detect your hands as they approach the keyboard to turn the backlight on and off. The PerfectStroke key system distributes typing force evenly across key surfaces, making every keystroke comfortable, fluid, and whisper-quiet. You can store your keyboard standing up to free up space on your desk.
