    simple question....

    worth buying?

    I have a new MacBook and will be using it alongside work computer so need something wireless so I can situate screen on a mount away from work. Then grab wireless keyboard as I need it.

    Is there another bluetooth keyboard worth buying?

    I like the idea of the compact design of this one though.....

    I've no experience of it myself but the reviews on applestore.ie seem fairly positive. But Apple's old bluetooth keyboard had quite a few problems as I recall.

    It's a bit small which is a negative point for the people I know who own it. I don't think it's worth the pricetag, if you want an exact replica of a laptop keyboard then I guess it's good.

    I actually like the keyboard on the macbook itself, so wouldn't mind a replica of it. Because I use two machines while working, the smaller keyboard for my personal computer would be a bonus. Is there any competition?

    Have one and they're amazing. So light and the keys are great. Worth it if you can stretch for it. Love it!

    Got a present of one today for my birthday and this thing rocks!

    The keys also feel a little more sturdy than the shoddy macbook keys. Maybe they are using better hinges or something.

    They look supercool too.

    Nice present ay?:D

    Just got me one. Damn it's small! Perfect for what I want it for though, controlling the Mac from across the room :)
