Customer Reviews

A quirky qwerty
I went from my regular keyboard to a Logitech cordless and have been happy that I did so. The next step is this couch-friendly, remote, mini keyboard/control pad, which I am using to run Media Center on my Vista PC. For quality, ease of installation and functionality, I give it full marks. For ease of use, I deduct a star. When you shrink all this functionality into such a small space, there is bound to be some penalty. Certain characters ( _ + - = \ " ' ) have been moved from their usual homes to other keys, where they require you to use the function key to type them. As at least a couple of them ( - ' ) are very common, this can be irritating. Also, I found the ClickPad, when used as a touch pad to point and click, very difficult at first, and I am still not comfortable with it. The trick is to use thumb tips for everything. This unit is not a replacement for your keyboard and mouse. But, for couch potatoes determined to take root and for those keen to eliminate clutter, this elegant, light little gadget might be just the thing for you.

Brilliant - does exactly what it says on the box
Compatible so far with: (that I have found!)

My phone - N95
My PS3 - as a keyboard - not as a controller (just to follow up on other reviews - it doesn't say anywhere that I have read that it should replace your controller, PS buttons etc)
My PC - Perfectly

This is a perfect keyboard for use with your TV as a monitor - missing some keys F1 to F12 but if you are using this with your TV how often will you need those keys - the software that comes with the keyboard is useful also as you can adjust the speed of the touch pad - which I have to say works very well.
In relation to battery life I got this last week and out of the box it says 9 days charge remaining.
Only issue i have had so far is having previously connected it to my phone and then switching on my PC - it picked up the phone first as it was the first 'live device' found. A little quirky to get connected back to the PC but there is a 'find' button on the dongle and another on the bottom of the keyboard
Overall 10 out of 10 for this and would recommend to anyone that uses their tv as a media centre.

Nearly as good as it should be
Lovely little keyboard that you can leave on the coffee table with the other remotes. It does the PC bit very well, but less useful on the PS3 than the original Sony remote (missing home key and std PS keys).

The keyboard backlight changes colour when you switch between "touchpad" and "direction" modes. I suppose this makes it easier to know which mode it is in.

For such a new bluetooth device I was very disappointed that it cannot handle multiple device switching. e.g.: you cannot easily switch between PC & PS3 mode on the fly. There is a little switch under the back cover where you can switch between PC (hardwired link to supplied USB adapter) and PS3 (normal bluetooth). I set mine up on the PC, flicked the switch and connected to PS3. That works fine, but switching back to PC mode did not re-establish the link to the USB adapter (I had to unplug the USB dongle first). On the plus side you could probably use this with many normal bluetooth devices without the USB adapter.

There is a groove under the battery cover where you can store the bluetooth adapter when you are using in PS3 mode.

Still it beats having a full-size keyboard hanging around the TV just for when you want to type a message or do a quick google search on PS3, and is really great for the media PC hooked up to TV. I think I will keep it.
