I  need a new keyboard . My keys are sticking too bad. Do they make any wireless ones for people with large hands(size 21 ring) ? I make so many dam typos also.

    If you make a lot of typo's, you should be looking into a mechanical keyboard with Cherry MX blue or green switches.

    Lots of typos actually has less to do with keyboard than it does with the person pecking away at the keyboard.  Going mechanical eliminates the wireless option for the most part.
     
    For the wireless option, I would look for what is considered a full size keyboard.  They're really not going to come any bigger than that in regards to key size.

    My finger tips are a little wider than my keys, a lot of times I hit 2 keys at once, that's why I make typos and need a new keyboard.

    The Cherry MX Blue and Green switches are best for that because they are not easy to accidentally compress... They have a lot more resistance. You can go up to a local bestbuy and see a few of them. They always have a few of the mechanical keyboards on display for you to test out.

    I don't want to open another thread but could you guys recommend me some cheap (around 30$) and reliable keyboard that I can get in the EU? It would be cool to have multimedia buttons and some lights in it. Thanks!
