Seeking Redemption - The Real Story of the Beautiful Game of Skee-Ball is the first and only book about the history of Skee-Ball, and the authoritative history of the game.

Seeking Redemption tells a timeless story of a start-up, beginning with the unlikely inventor, Joseph Fourestier Simpson, and featuring all of the classic struggles and triumphs. It is also a story of how this beloved game of Skee-Ball survived two world wars, recessions and depressions, industry transformations, technology revolutions and legal wrangling to thrive for over 100 years. Skee-Ball morphed from its' origins as "A Man's Game" to becoming a fascinating game for everyone. It's continued to survive patent wars, clone competition, and the threats of bankruptcy and obscurity to emerge once again as a best selling iPhone app, and be resurrected for modern amusement venues by Bay Tek Games, Inc. redesign in 2016.

This book is a treasure for history buffs as well. Meticulously researched from primary sources, lavishly illustrated with original photographs, letters, papers and documents, it allows the history to speak for itself in an engaging and readable way. Not just the story of the game, it is a unique view into the universal human struggles for redemption and recognition, and a salute to the eternal inventiveness of the human spirit.

I am very happy!
Color: Graphite, Style: Keyboard
No issues. Keyboard works great and connects flawlessly to my laptop. Can't imagine any other problems. It does make a little clicky noise when typing but not overly loud or annoying and not as loud/annoying as my work computer keyboard. That keyboard has a very thin, plasticy, sharper, cheaper sounding click and this has a more subdued, heavier duty sounding click. I like it much better. It seems dampened maybe. It's hard to describe sounds but I find it way less annoying than any other keyboards I have used. I am extremely happy with its size and still having the full keyboard and numbers.

Simple, reliable, and very comfortable to use
Color: Graphite, Style: Keyboard
This keyboard is exactly what I was looking for. Setup was quick and easy, and the Bluetooth connection has been stable with no lag or dropouts. The keys are comfortable and quiet, making it great for everyday typing at home or in the office. I really like having the full numpad while still keeping a relatively compact size. The keyboard feels sturdy, and the spill-resistant design gives some peace of mind. Battery life has been excellent so far, and it works smoothly across both Windows and Mac. Overall, it’s a solid, no-frills keyboard that does its job well. Great quality and performance for the price.

Feels cheap, but hard to complain at this price
Color: Graphite, Style: Keyboard, Color: Graphite, Style: Keyboard
This keyboard definitely looks and feels very budget, and the plastic construction makes that obvious right away. The whole board has a strong plastic feel, and if you twist it even a little bit, you can hear the frame making plastic creaking noises. It doesn’t exactly feel sturdy or premium. The key feel is also pretty mediocre. The keys feel a bit mushy and not very satisfying to type on. If you’re used to better keyboards or mechanical ones, the typing experience here will probably feel pretty underwhelming. That said, I can’t be too harsh on it. This is a very cheap keyboard, and for the price it does the basic job. It connects easily over Bluetooth with no lag, and it even comes with the AAA batteries included. So it’s still a decent value for a simple everyday keyboard. Four stars feels fair for what it is.

As long as longevity isn’t required
Color: Graphite, Style: Keyboard
Love this keyboard, I chose the ProtoArc EM11 NL Bluetooth Ergonomic Mouse to go with it. Could not be more pleased with quality and heft of the keyboard specially at the price point. Whisper silent and easy to pair. Excellent choice. ******UPDATED****** Had to come back and downgrade to 1 star. Keyboard quit on me after 3 months. Phantom keystrokes, like I was holding down one letter. It was a slow burn until I couldn’t take it anymore. Thought it was a one off. Replaced the batteries etc. If you just need something for a month or so while waiting or saving for something better, go for it. Totally fits the ‘you get what you pay for’ idiom.
