5.0 out of 5 stars Loved It, March 23, 2007

By	Andrew Gash "Wireless Tester" (Los Angeles, CA United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Let me say that I have tested other products around this problem and this solved many issues. First issue with many wireless products is the products necessity for line-of-site with the antenna. This was not a problem. The antenna is actually behind my entertainment center, so it is out of sight and still works well. The other problem is the ability to work around other magnetized products. I have the antenna squarely in back of some speakers and right next to them. The antenna on other products need to be removed from the area around other electronics. The antenna to this product sits right on my computer in back of my television. Works great! The other problem with other wireless products is the range. For my purposes this works fine. I'm about 15 feet away from the monitor and it works well. Works at a greater range than anything I have previously owned/tested.

Was a little concerned with the minimal setup directions, but no directions are really needed. The number lock button on mine was pressed in when I got it, which caused some confusion, but once I figured that out, I was on my way.

For someone who has been disappointed by about 3 or 4 different brands and devices to solve this problem, this was a big relief. I'm sure these types of products willl grow in popularity so it was also disappointing how little product testing information in this area there is. Hope this helps.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good Media Center keyboard, July 7, 2007

By	Terry D. Anderson "Terry Anderson" (Kansas City) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I love trackballs and I wanted one integrated into a keyboard and this fit the bill perfectly. It was plug-and-play on both my Windows PC and also on my Mac. It's a great gadget and I would give it a "5" except in my subjective opinion, it's a little tough to type on...the keys feel heavy and I often found myself veering off of the home keys and typing gibberish. But I have recommended it to friends and plan on buying several more. It's just so well designed and functional....

4.0 out of 5 stars Great multimedia keyboard, September 14, 2007

By	M. Hankerson - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

We got this keyboard to serve as the main control for the computer we have connected to our TV. It works great. Signal strength is strong, even across a large living room, and key placement is handy. The only problem that we have had is that the battery door won't close after batteries were installed (doesn't fit). We just pulled out duct tape and have had no residual problems (until we need to change batteries, I guess).
