Exactly what I need but there is room for improvement!

I really hope Reddragon finds this review because I think half keyboards are the future of PC gaming. Why? I'm really used to typing documents while leaning against a desk with a slim wireless keyboard. I would also hook up a projector to watch movies. However, I would never play like that. I always play competitions with switch mechanical keyboards, but most of the time (e.g. 99%) I only use half of them. With this half keyboard, I have my gaming keyboard, typing keyboard and gaming mouse within perfect reach. Thanks to the rubber feet on the bottom, it is stable. I kill with this thing. Here are some things that could be improved: 1. Tap the sloping palm rest (at least lightly). I'll be sure to use soft tape or whatever to stick it on because that's all it takes. It's at the perfect angle but can feel a bit stiff during intense gaming sessions. 2. The C connection with the keyboard is very delicate. If my desk wasn't a fat, motionless mess, the slightest nudge could have disabled the processor's key commands. Easy to fix, but it's really very delicate.3. Please note the various mechanical switch options. I can live with the blues, but the choice will open a lot of doors. Those extra 'G' keys around the keyboard and the odd spacebar placement are an interesting addition, but they probably need to be changed. A room that is in a completely different location needs a reason or is placed where it usually is because it takes time to get used to. All Etra keys like G should go up or right, if at all. My hand usually makes it difficult to see them where they are now. It really could have been built a little cheaper. I understand the price is pretty solid but it looks like really cheap plastic.6. It's picky, but the eventual addition of traditional keyboard support for tilting the keyboard wouldn't hurt either. Otherwise satisfied. If the best comes out with red I will definitely buy it.

Pros
