I recently bought a Belkin "Flip" 2-port USB KVM switch, wired button style. Im using a MS Laser 8000 Bluetooth Mouse and Saitek II keyboard. I am *not* using the Video swapping portion as I have 2 monitors.

My problem is lag time for swaps. I mean 5-6 seconds easy. It doesnt sound like a lot, I know but its enough that I wonder if everyone just accepts this or buys a second kayboard/mouse and bigger desk =-)

Anyone have any experience with KVMs, know a better brand/model for reduced lag? I could totally handle 1-2seconds but upwards of 6 seems really not worthwhile.
