The keyboard is nice and most importanly is very compact. No questions - I love it. It has one downside: power switch. I mean you can turn it off and on, but the stupid keyboard turning on by itself while I am carrying it my backpack on the way to school, and the most terrible thing it turns Itunes on, so I walk like a boombox (tanks God Ipads are not that loud) till I notice.

It's okay. No complaints from me about battery life or reliability. Nice weight and balance to it. The keys do seem to attract grime and dirt easily.
Biggest problem is that it needs the awesome backlighting that most of the Mac laptops have. (I would happily sacrifice tons of battery life if that's what it takes.) The backlit keys of my MacBook Air are so awesome, yet when I hook it up to the TV and take this wireless keyboard to the couch I lose that great feature.

Negative - Uses a lot battery life; has problems pairing so you can be typing and no words all of a sudden;can't clean the keys easily - no pop off like other key boards - so if you snack or spill this isn't for you

Pros - NIce looking, keys are soft to use, no wires

I have bought 3, YES THREE, of this product, and each time, one has failed me. The delete key breaks and stops working, the KB will go wacko and just unabatedly enter the same key without me touching a thing. And many others issues.

I BOUGHT THREE OF THESE

this must show it's a piece of junk. i like it's size and it's user-friendliness, and all the fancy aspects of it, but i have given up on it.

I was looking for an external keyboard to improve ergonomics while using my MacBook Pro at my desk. I usually avoid wireless accessories because they are sometimes more trouble than they're worth, but this keyboard was tempting because I could also use it with an iPad or iPhone. I went ahead and ordered it, along with Apple's rechargeable AA batteries, and have been very happy with the decision.

At my desk, the keyboard has a similar feel to the very nice built-in keyboard on the MacBook Pro. It looks great, is easy to move around and clean under, and one less cable is a plus after all. The battery charge lasts several weeks and when the battery dies it takes less than a minute to rotate in a new pair of rechargeables.

But when I'm traveling the keyboard is really delightful. For many weekend trips I don't need my laptop, but I want to keep up with email. So I'll slip the ultra-thin keyboard in my overnight bag and pair it with my iPhone, which speeds up my email performance immensely.

The only detail I don't like about this keyboard is that if I take the MacBook Pro away from my desk to another part of the house, the Bluetooth connection fades in and out and keeps flashing Connected / Disconnected messages on my screen. I finally got into the habit of turning off the keyboard when I leave the desk -- by holding down the power button for a few seconds -- and that cleared it up. It would have been better if this were automated somehow or configurable on the computer.

But overall, I'm happy I tried this keyboard, and it's now an important part of my professional toolkit.
