I bought this for use with my WD LIVE TV Plus Media Player, and it works fantastically. In fact, is has all but completely replaced the regular remote for the WD Media Player!
I wanted a small and unobtrusive wireless keyboard that would work with the media player for entering text in the search boxes for YouTube, Netflix, etc. This little wireless USB keyboard does that and so much more.
First, it's small. I can lay it in the palm of my and it barely overlaps long ways. It's also very thin and lightweight. These are both huge pluses! I've got far too many remotes for my entertainment center as it is, so have something this powerful with such a small foot print is incredible. And even though it is small, it is sturdy and well built. It is also very easy to use and type with using your thumbs as if you were texting on a messaging cell phone with a slide-out QWERTY keyboard. In fact, it's even easier than that as the keys on this device are a bit bigger than those on the cell phone, so it's a breeze to use.
Second, it's backlit which makes entering key presses in dim light a snap. This is a big plus when you're watching a movie or getting ready to watch and don't want to turn on the flood lights!
Third, the Arrow, Back and Enter keys work perfectly and are fully supported by the WD media player, so I can use this keyboard to fully navigate every menu in the WD media player without ever having to pick up it's own native remote. This keyboard basically replaces the standard WD remote! The only exception is when using some Online services that don't drop back to the menu when you hit Back. For those, you still need to hit the Home key on the WD remote to break out of those applications. And of course, you still need the WD native remote to power the media player On & Off.
Finally, the USB transmitter fits into a small sleeve that rests in a hollow of the device. At first, I thought the transmitter didn't get shipped, then I found it was hidden in that storage hollow. That makes perfect sense for traveling so that you don't run the risk of losing the transmitter when you take it to another location. Also, the transmitter is the smallest I've ever seen, yet it works flawlessly with great range. It's obvious a lot of thought went into something as simple (yet required) as the USB transmitter. I'm impressed.
I haven't used this with a Laptop or PC yet, so I haven't been able to play with the touchpad. But given the incredible performance of every other aspect of this keyboard, I've no doubt it will work well.
There is also a laser pointer built into the side of the keyboard. I can see this coming in handy during a presentation where you would use the keyboard and touch pad to navigate and change screens on a Laptop or PC presentation shown on a large screen or projector. Then you could use the laser pointer to "point" at certain things on the screen to call attention to them during your presentation.
And.....the laser pointer gives you hours of fun with your cats!
This is definitely a 5 Star product (and then some). I'm very, very impressed!

What a bargain
I also have the much more expensive Logitech DiNovo Mini but I prefer this one. The touchscreen works better, and it also has discrete arrow keys instead of having a dual purpose switchable pad like on the DiNovo. I just think the key layout is a little lacking. The media keys require pressing the Fn key along with a function key. This is a multimedia remote, the f1-f8 keys should be the ones requiring the combo key stroke. I fixed this with a key mapper on the pc. Also the mouse buttons shouldn't be under the touchscreen, they should be on the other side so the left thumb can be used to click while the right thumb points. The Magic-Pro ProMini BT-Touch 2 looks like it has a better layout. Update: this is my review of the Rii remote which is almost identicalWhy such mixed reviews on this remote, you ask?, January 11, 2014Because there are so many different versions of this remote and you can't even be sure which one you'll get. I first bought the Favi version two years ago and it has been my favorite mini. The working range is adequate and the backlight feature is indispensable. The power switch broke when I dropped it - still works fine but when the battery gets low it gets flaky and needs to be reset by cycling the power. I have been on a quest to replace it and now have three more similar units along with the Logitech diNovo Mini Keyboard, the Unisen iPazzPort KP-810-18R Wireless Keyboard and Touchpad with Learning Infrared (IR) Remote Control 2.4G RF Google TV Compatible. The iPazzPort is very similar to the Rii and Favi but also includes a programmable IR remote. The Logitech is sleek and works well but has its own shortcomings - especially the price.Why do I have 3 more of these? Each one has been listed with a picture of the identical remote but all were slightly different in reality. The differences are immediately apparent by the symbol on the button in the upper left corner. The Favi had the Light bulb as in the one pictured on this Rii listing. The first Rii I received was the exact same unit but unfortunately the backlight didn't work. The great price on these makes it hardly worth paying the shipping to return it. I then bought another Favi with the same picture in the listing, but the one I received had a Bluetooth symbol on the upper left button. The range of this unit was ridiculous, you may as well plug in a wired keyboard. So I bought another Rii at a different website, again with the picture showing the light bulb on the upper left button. This one showed up with a red laser dot symbol on the upper left button, and continuously loses connection with the receiver and needs to be switched off and on again.I suggest before you buy one of these you contact the seller and see if they can tell you which version you will get. The one with the white light bulb on the upper left button seems to work best. Maybe just buy the iPazzPort KP-810, the layout is nearly identical and the IR function is handy to power on the TV and Receiver.Pros: backlight, RF Button, price , laser pointer to play with the cat during commercialsCons: Layout - the media keys require a simultaneous push of the Fn key, easily fixed by installing Keytweak on the PC. Has anyone used F1 - F12 since DOS?The mouse buttons should be on the left side. Click and drag is very awkward.Can't turn off the tap to click feature of the touch pad. Extremely annoying! No touch pad drivers are available so there are no options in control panelRF button is not explained in the stereotypical Chinese manual (if you are lucky enough to get one).
