It's a distillation of keyboards down to the most basic. I bought it for a car PC project I'm working on for a 1975 car. That it looks period in the car that was designed three decades before says a lot about the timelessness of clean design.

Great keyboard overall. It's an easy buying decision to make -- if you like the keyboard on the MacBook, buy it. It's literally the same keyboard. I like the flexibility of moving it around so easily and excellent bluetooth range, however if you need a number pad, this is not the keyboard... Read the full review →

I purchased this keyboard a little over a year ago and recently replaced it. The keyboard's auto-power down feature seems nice until you have to press a key twice to begin typing. The first tap to wake the keyboard, the second tap being the first recognized input. I hoped the firmware that was... Read the full review →

Great keyboard for cutting all the wires and stil not using up a USB Port on my macbook. I use it with my Macbook Pro which in combo with a magic mouse and HP LED Monitor, lets me turn it from mobile power house to desktop work station with no trouble at all. Read the full review →

The good: This keyboard's feel is great. The push of the buttons is precise and nice with a nice mechanical sound. The weight of the keyboard is very light which is expected from a bluetooth keyboard. The minor: The way the keyboard is angled might be an issue for some as it is abit broad in my...

I can't say enough about it. It maintains connectivity wonderfully to my mac mini that's attached to my entertainment center. It evokes a giddy feeling of joy while typing on it, more-so than my 13" MacBook. I use Energizer rechargeables I purchased over two years ago and they still... Read the full review →

The modern design of this device is up to par with all of apple products. And the comfort and tactility of the buttons has far exceeded any of Apple's previous keyboards. Takes up very little space and easy to clean. I do wish there was a number pad was standard. Battery life is a non-issue. I am a... Read the full review →

It's small, it's compact, and has only the stuff you need. It's pretty much the laptop keyboard pulled out into a proper keyboard. The key travel is a little shallow for my taste, but I've been spoiled by using the Microsoft Natural Keyboards for so long---which are just... Read the full review →
