The keyboard on this device is a series of contradictions. Actually, it really
all boils down to one: it's generously large, hampered by a somewhat strange
layout that makes mistypes a more frequent occurrence than they should be. On
the left side, for example, Samsung has elected to make room for the Function
key by pushing the letter keys to the right, meaning that A is further right
than Z -- something that takes some getting used to. The space bar interrupts
the lower row, placed between V and B, and the Enter key is to the right of the
Up key, which is next to P in the top letter row. We're sure we could get used
to all of these quirks, but why should we have to? Why couldn't have Samsung
just come up with a more typical layout? Anyhow, once you get past that, the
keys are generally easy to type on -- they're not particularly
three-dimensional, but they're spaced far enough apart (and each one is large
enough) so that finding them and hitting only the one you intend to is a pretty
straightforward process, they're very clicky, and the dedicated numeric row is
certainly a plus.
