is this keyboard better to use with the ipad then ipad keyboard dock?
- Asked by Andrew C
- Apr 7, 2010

Best AnswerI just got the iPad Keyboard Dock delivered. It has an excellent design, look and feel, but I am stepping out this minute to return it and get an Apple Wireless Keyboard instead. My reasons are that the iPad Keyboard Dock:
1) does not support the iPad in landscape mode;
2) requires you to remove the iPad Case to dock it;
3) has a vertical iPad support that does not collapse, taking up a lot of space in the bag and making it more difficult to pack than the wireless.
Obviously, the iPad Keyboard Dock has the benefit of concurrently charging the iPad and providing an audio line out jack, although you could easily use the Wireless Keyboard with an iPad while it is connected to any dock or charge cable.
Really, the only two major benefits I see for the Keyboard Dock over the Wireless Keyboard are:
1) currently you can't use Bluetooth on a plane, so the Wireless Keyboard would not be allowed;
2) the Wireless Keyboard uses separate batteries.- Answered by Daron K from New York

What is the difference between Apple Wireless keyboard and Apple Wireless Keyboard British?
Are these both the same or not. If they are both the same which do you purchase for the English keyboard!!!! Both are £55 and it isn't clear or am I missing something?

Best AnswerThis is up to you as far as personal preference.
There IS a difference between the US and British version keyboards. If you look closely at the British version, you will notice that keys like the Enter/Return key or Caps Lock key, ALT/Option key on the US version are different in size and/or symbol representation on the British keyboard.
Either keyboard will work with your Mac, so long as you indicate in System Preferences which keyboard layout you are using.- Answered by David K from Union City

Best AnswerNo. Apple sells the Multi-Touch Bluetooth "Magic Mouse" separately. You can also use almost any 3rd party USB or Bluetooth mouse, such as Logitech, for example with your Mac.

Kindly advise about the Apple Wireless Keyboard capability to be used with my MacBook Pro Retina. While using Apple's Magic Mouse simultaneously
I am using MacBook Pro (Retina)
I am wondering and considering to purchase an Apple's Wireless Keyboard to use with my MacBook Pro, any person please advise me for 2 questions as follow:

2. If it is possible, but since I am using Apple's Magic Mouse via bluetooth.
My question is that will it work together simultaneously both wireless (really wireless) Apple's Keyboard and Apple's Magic Mice?
I'm just a beginner, and this is my first time experiencing MacBook Pro, any of the experienced people who can assist me and clearify my wondering of usability will just assist me for a purchase intention right away.
