What keyboard can be considered ideal for a programmer?

I read similar topics, but there were no such requirements ...
I mainly work with code: I type and program. I also use graphic editors for design a little more.
I have a Microsoft 3000 BlueTrack mouse + keyboard (the picture is clickable on the market) In the set, I am categorically not satisfied with the blundering mouse, the crooked operation of the function keys, which are not perceived as separate without a driver. And the driver is not very flexible. And the keyboard is noisy. In the rest, however, everything is perfect. My overstated requirements for the keyboard: 1) Convenient home / end / delete location (without them, I'm very used to it) 2) Quiet. No, I'm alone in the room, but... I really want silence. mk_wd3000_otherviews01.jpg

3) Shallow move. The smaller it is, the less tired my fingers are.
4) The presence of normal multimedia customizable keys: sound (+/-/mute), play, pause, next track, prev track, which would work without drivers, and the usual program settings perceived them as separate keys.
5) It would be nice without the numpad. Well, I don't use it at all. I type numbers blindly. And the numpad is covered with dust, with the buttons "pa,, p, o, m, i, t" already shining.
6) Wireless. But if there is an ideal keyboard, but with a wire, I will somehow put up with it, although in general I would like to have a Logitech Unifying, where there is only one receiver ..
If we talk about the mouse, then the back button under the thumb is required. And so that it is convenient to wash it, and not change it every six months, because. the rubberized coating is erased (Like on my Bluetrack).
PS: I have a Logitech Touchpad T650 , it's perfect for web surfing. But it's hard to work on it. But if it supported custom custom gestures ... I would give a lot for it.
PPS: I can write a full review of the Microsoft mouse + keyboard set and Logitech T650. I have been using the keyboard for over a year, and the touchpad is brand new. Because they are truly worthwhile products.

I've been looking for a set for a long time too.
I have a Logitech G700 mouse, and I think it's the perfect mouse, and everyone in my office agrees with me. I'm still looking for a keyboard. But the best is the scissor mechanism or mechanics. The last one is noisy.
