IIRC, there have been two versions of this keyboard. The first included a trackpad. The current does not. Some user comments that I read also seemed to indicate a bit of difference in the flexing of the overall board, between the two models, but I no longer recall those.

The first version was also significantly more expensive.

If I can ask you, how large is the palm rest in front of the keys, on your model?

I was tempted by this model, but I have trouble when the front edge of a keyboard extends so far in front of the keys that it presses against my wrists, particularly when I'm typing on a surface whose height I can't control, e.g. a standard table where my forearms end up pointing somewhat upward instead of being level. (A design that, unfortunately for me, is quite prevalent in laptops, these days.)

I'd guess it's about the same size as the palm rest on my T410 Thinkpad laptop. Certainly it's bigger than the non-existent palm rest on most keyboards, but I've never found it an issue.

Thanks. I've poked at a 420 in the store, and it seemed while the palm rest was about at the limit of what I could tolerate, in size, that it might work for me.

Tell Lenovo they owe you a commission. ;-)
