At what distance in practice does this work at and does Bluetooth work through walls floors and ceilings?
It would be handy to be able to use the iTunes controls (volume, skip tracks, fast forward etc) in the bedroom which is above the living room where the MacBook lives connected to the TV. The distance would be less than 5 metres but there's a floor/ceiling in the way, will it work? It's a lot to spend just to try it out. I also want to know if it will work from a long way away with no obstacles like from the kitchen with the door to the living room open to control the iTunes movie while at the kitchen table. Is the 30 feet advertised actually true in practice and does the distance shorten as the battery life decreases?

AnswerIt would work. The keyboard is actually quite powerful and the receiver on your computer is as well.

Portability and durability of this keyboard?
I've been looking for a case/keyboard combo for my ipad and none of them seem to provide enough protection. So I've decided on a hard case and probably this keyboard. I was just wondering whether this keyboard will be ok in my laptop bag every day taking it to uni etc? It's not like I throw these things around, but sitting on public transport etc I'm worried about the keys taking a bit of bumping.

Best AnswerYes and no. You can only pair one bluetooth device to one bluetooth receiver. If you want to use one keyboard with 2 computers, you will have to pair the keyboard between computers everytime you want to use it. If you're patient enough to do this, then yes.

Can the wireless keyboard power on a MAC Mini ? Does it have a power button to wirelessly power up a MAC Mini?
Enhancing the purpose of Wireless, does the wireless keyboard have a power button to power up the MAC Mini? That would be a great value add to the wireless keyboard.

Best AnswerUnfortunately, no. The power button at the side of the keyboard is used solely for powering the keyboard on/off to save battery power. The keyboard is Bluetooth-based, and unlike a USB hub which has a slight power draw that COULD allow it to "listen" for a power up command, the Bluetooth receiver on the computer is completely off so it won't receive/relay any commands to turn on.
Like you, I miss the keyboard power button, especially since I have to reach around the back of my iMac and feel for the power button. However, it seems that Apple has chosen to remove the keyboard power button functionality from all of their new keyboards as well as their computers. Forums around the web indicate that even hooking up an older Apple USB keyboard with a power button to a newer Mac will not allow for power ons. This is apparently due to some 3rd-party USB hubs that were inadvertently causing the Macs to turn on on their own.- Answered by David K from Union City

Best AnswerThis keyboard will work with a WIndows computer, as long as it can pick up Bluetooth. Note that some keys, like Fn and Eject, will not work unless slip in the Mac OS X Instll disc when in Windows, which will install various drivers, including the Wireless Keyboard drivers, activating these keys.

Are all the new Keyboards with one row enter, not two rows like before ?
Before only the US layout keyboards were with one row "enter/return" key rather then the Europe layout where the "enter/return" key was taking space on two rows. How is the situation now ?
