I have the previous generation Eclipse and it's great, but I didn't pay $56 for it. I'd pay $30ish for it again in a second, though.

Ok.. I keep wanting to buy this keyboard but I prefer the laptop style keyboards. Can anyone say if this is a slim-type keyboard or if the keys are taller/longer travel?

if you click the link and look at the pic you would see that they are full hight keys.
