Customer Reviews

Probably the best keyboard for a HTPC
Works very well with a Mac Mini in spite of the fact it isn't officially supported. Been using it for a month and the battery is still going strong. The trackpad could be a bit more responsive in scrolling but the keyboard is great and doesn't miss a beat.

Good product but disconnect problem
I bought this keyboard a couple weeks ago to use with my HTPC that runs on Media Center.
It's exactly what you need if you want to be able to use both the regular keyboard and mouse mode (occasionally) or the remote control mode for Media Center (frequently).
The switch from regular to remote could be a little more convenient though (very small slider switch near the mousepad).
The keyboard itself is very small so don't buy this if you plan to do extensive texting like for emails. I use it to navigate Internet.
The life spawn of the battery is great.

However there is one problem, as reported by others, the bluetooth link will sometimes disconnect if you let the keyboard stand un-used for hours (and the PC is on or the PC is standby). This is one major issue for us HTOC users that want to put our systems in standby instead if shutdown.

I haven't tried yet to replace the dongle as suggested by others.

Nicely built but really small
I knew it was small, just didn't realize quite how small. Nicely built, but of no use for anything aside from a HTPC remote, and for that sole purpose its too expensive.

They keyboard is too cramped for anything but the shortest typing, and the touch pad is too small, particularly on screens set to the resolutions an HD TV will support.
