Bought one of these to use with my Raspberry Pi -worked straight out of the box when running the Debian Linux distribution.
Other than that - decent sized keys and as I will be using it in a media centre enviornment, it is the perfect size (and does not take over the living room). Could be useful for presentations too.
Speccy users might appreciate the rubber keys!

I bought the product for my pc streaming on the TV. I really liked its design and its functionalities.
Unfortunately I followed the instructions but it was not working. It was sending strange characters to my pc even when disabled. I had to remove the usb receiver to stop it. I also tried to fully charge the battery with no success.
I tested on XP pro, Vista 32 and Windows 7 in different rooms thinking the problem was related to interferences. I also tried different frequencies.
I contacted the manufacturer through its web site explaining the issue and asking for help but I have never received any answer. I found few post on the web complaining about the customer support of the manufacturer and flow in the design of some of their products.
After the week-end I asked for a refund and now I am waiting to get my money back. Surely I got a defective item or I just needed few hints to fix the issue but the manufacturer's support has not been there.

I bought this mini keyboard for my HTPC as a wired keyboard & mouse combo was not only restrictive but also unsightly.
My main issue is that the keyboard is in US layout, so you need to change your keyboard layout in Windows and accept the fact that you loose the pound symbol.
Minor gripes are that I've had to reset the RF frequency a couple of times, it would nice to just to have to do this once but I have a couple of wireless items in the house which may be the cause and I don't know what my neighbour has. The variable DPI of the mouse is just a gimic - there are 2 settings, usefull or useless. The scroll wheel function is also pretty ropey, lacking any real control, and I seriously would have doubts about using the unit as a game controller. The user guide is very basic and could really do with some more detailed information on how to get the best of the devices functionality, there is no support on the manufacturers website, in fact this model isn't even listed.
So why the 4 stars?
Build quality seems excellent, the mouse and keyboard aspects both function well, and its suprisingly usable as a keyboard given it's size (I'm writing this using it). The built in function keys are really usefull allowing full control of media player,and the backlight is great if you've got the lights out. The unit does exactly what I need it to do (apart from the pound symbol - but how often do you need that?) and is totally inconspicuous when not in use. I don't have anything to compare this mini keyboard with but in all honisty it's quite impressive even with it's faults, I'm pretty pleased with my purchase all things considered.

Unreliable
When it works, it's very useful. However, it's very unreliable, sometimes it gets non responsive and it's impossible to control the trackpad.

Works with Raspberry Pi
Out of the box, plugged in the usb and it worked straight away, no configuration needed. Works comfortably over 3 metres, and I quite like the keyboard and trackpad.

Does the job. The touch-pad is barely workable.
Overall, does the job. Touch pad does not have a good feel and smoothness. Tapping on the pad is also iffy. Was okay for me to use with media box. Read more
