Digital camera reviews of Apple Wireless Keyboard Kit

Digital camera Review: Great Keyboard but some draw backs
Summary: 4 Stars

This is a great keyboard and I have to say that it has recieved its fair share of use. I bought it to pair with my MacBook pro because the edge on it is somewhat pointed and uncomfortable (I have to deal with it all day being class for Law School). It does what it is supposed to and has had no problems (used now for 2 months):

Pros:
-Great battery life (as of the typing of this, the keyboard is at 75% life after two months of use at about 8 hours a day)
-Looks great
-Connection is great (Note should be made that it is used on a MacBook Pro so I have yet to use it on my Windows PC bluetooth)
-Set up was easy (again it is on a Apple so the pairing is very simple with nothing to download)
-Very Responsive (very little lag except when it is used after some time off, but expected b/c it will shut off to conserve power)

Cons:
-The low profile is somewhat difficult to get use to (the space bar is nearly level with the surface you are typing on)
-White Keys begin to show dirt very easily (can be cleaned using water or rubbing alcohol)


Final note that I must say is that there are a lot gripes online due to the lack of the number pad, which is true but one knows that from the start from the picture. If you are buying this for strictly typing purposes, that is what it is for (minimalist), if you need a key pad or have difficulty typing on a low profile, then look for another bluetooth keyboard.

Summary of Apple Wireless Keyboard Kit

The Apple Wireless Keyboard has been completely redesigned, inside and out. It features an elegant, ultra-thin anodized aluminum enclosure with low-profile keys that provide crisp, responsive feel. It also has function keys for one-touch access to a variety of Mac features such as screen brightness, volume, eject, play/pause, fast-forward and rewind, Expose, and Dashboard. Its compact design fits on your lap or on even the most crowded desk. And its Bluetooth wireless technology lets you use it just about anywhere within 30 feet of your Mac.The keyboard automatically powers down when you're not using it and turns on instantly as soon as you start typing. This intelligent power management means you'll get up to nine months of battery life based on average usage patterns. It also has an on/off switch for when you're away from your computer for a long time.
