    Hi all.

    I'm getting all the necessary's for my new HTPC setup and came across this tidy little keyboard.

    It would be handy as it's so small and can also connect to my iPhone and iPad if required.

    Has anyone ever used one like it? I notice it has a "chocolate" style key layout, could be a pain.

    Any advice appreciated!

    Thanks

    No idea... It runs on 2 x AAA batteries so I can't imagine it being fantastic

    I'm thinking the same, esp. since it runs over bluetooth

    Yeah that's true.

    Including P&P it's just under €40. At that price I think the better option would be to go for the apple wireless keyboard at €69. I don't think it's much bigger than this one?

    I wouldn't say you'd be missing much with that "scroll button"

    Yeah that's what I'm talking about, I'd say it'd be fairly useless.
