The next group of buttons is the Internet Buttons, these are perhaps my second most used buttons since you have so many function available at your finger tips.  Home - Email - Search - Refresh - Back - Forward - Favorites - Stop.  As you can see this group of buttons will allow you to literally surf the web without the aid of a mouse.

The Audio/Video portion of the keyboard offers you the same controls that you would find on your favorite multimedia player, with one small difference, these are right at your finger tips.  These controls include Play - Stop - Eject - Back Skip - Forward Skip - Volume Up - Volume Down - Mute.
 

Rounding the corners we have the Computer Control buttons, with the Sleep - Log Off and Power buttons.

The last two buttons are the Toggle and Close buttons.  The Toggle buttons allows you to toggle between the programs you have open on your system.  I'm sure you know what the Close button is so I won't go into a great deal of detail on it.  If you look close you can see at the bottom of the Scroll Lock key is the toggle for EL Lighting on the keyboard..

After reviewing the Logisys KB609 I am pleased to say that all of their work has paid off in the new design of this keyboard.  The illuminated Office keyboard they released prior to this while having some nice features lacked anything to really sing he praise about it.  That is not the case with this incarnation, they have come up with a new sleek design the will blend in with just about any desktop environment but perhaps most of all the fact that it operates so well is the most important part.

When comparing the Logisys KB609 to other keyboards similar in design such as those made by Logitech, the Logisys would be very comparable not only in quality and features, but the thing that swings the KB609 into the winners column is the price difference between the two.

A special thanks to Logisys who graciously provided us with this sample.
