What is Bulk Rate? BulkRate is a semi-wholesale system with items priced separately from retail. When you use bulk rates, a flat $1.70 registered air mail fee will automatically be added to your cart to ensure delivery of package. While BulkRate's intention is to offer cheaper prices when you buy in bulk, because it is priced separately it on occassions show a higher than retail price. That's why we ask you to enter BULKRATE as a coupon code to manually activate the rates. You can always opt not to use the bulk rates. If you are looking for wholesale prices please feel free to contact us.

Involvement Level: Expert (understands the inner workings)
Pros: It's very easy to use, just plug and play. I've been testing it on Ubuntu 10.10, windows 7 and windows Xp, and I haven't had to install any software or drivers to use it. It works in a distance around fifteen meters. It works from the next room behind a wall, it's good if you haver your pc in the other room.
Cons: Nothing to say.
Other: It's a very good option to use with a remote pc connected to a TV or in a presentation.
Involvement Level: Expert (understands the inner workings)
Pros: Pleasantly surprised when I received the keyboard. I had purchased a previous handheld kybd/mouse and never realized it was missing keys (TAB among others), This one has all the keys you would use on a regular sized keyboard (except PAUSE and CAPSLOCK).
On a full charge it will last about 3 days, then the orange backlight will blink to let you know the battery is low. The included USB cable CAN charge and power the keyboard at the same time if you forget to charge it the night before.
The power switch can be turned off to conserve battery, and you still can use the laser pointer with the keyboard turned off.
When you turn on the power switch, it doesn't take more than half a second to re-establiish a connection with the dongle. Also, if you move the kybd/dongle to another computer they remain paired.
When you enable the backlight, it will light up when you press a key or touch the trackpad.
You can TAP AND DRAG.
It's surprisingly easy to type on even with large hands, though I find typing on a Blackberry phone a bit easier as the buttons are closer together.
It DOES work in PC BIOS, DOS, Windows, OSX, MacMini, MacBook Pro.
The WINDOWS button will work like the COMMAND button on OSX.
Cons: The mini usb port is to recharge the battery only, you can NOT use it as a wired keyboard.
The four blue leds in the top left corner are a bit bright, I just hold my thumb over them when using the keyboard.
There is no accelerometer in it, so when holding it vertical the scroll pad is still for vertical scrolling.
The included usb cable is a thinner than I would have preferred it to be.
The plastic housing it a tad on the thin side, making it feel like it might break/crack easily if dropped.
You can NOT send ALT+F4 or CTRL+F4 to the computer (you can send something like CTRL+C though). This is due to the fact that the functions keys (F1 - F12) use the 'Fn' + digit buttons. So it would be like pressing three buttons at the same time which it doesn't like.
Other: Getting ready to buy second one
Involvement Level: Expert (understands the inner workings)
Pros: True plug and play: I have tested it in Windows XP, Windows 7, Android, Ubuntu. Just plug the adaptor in the USB port and go ahead! You can use it for yout tablet, HTPC, etc. It seems like a standard remote. Very compact dimensions. Also useful for presentations due to its laser pointer. It has a hole to place the USB adaptor when you take the remote with you.
Cons: Building quality is not good enough. Mine was broken when my child dropped it. Anyway, I will order another one ;-) Battery should last longer.
Other: Very good and useful keyboard, but don't let the children touch it.
