Customer Review: Wonderful! I Love This Keyboard
Summary: 5 Stars
I am not an Apple person, but I needed a wireless keyboard that works (with my PC). This is the one. If you have a blue tooth adapter - this keyboard does not come with one as I found out, this keyboard works very well and at a good distance. My last wireless keyboard gave me fits when it would miss letters, but that doesn't happen any more. The aluminum design is very thin and light and the keys feel nice and springy but are quite different from a conventional keyboard. Once you have your blue tooth adapter set up, this keyboard will be easy to install. I also have figured out how to remap the keys to inactivate the horrible cap lock key. If you are looking for a wireless keyboard to eliminate wires for a home theater or just to get rid of the tether, I would definitely buy this thing.Customer Review: Wireless Keyboard

Product works perfectly, the paint specks that the seller warned about haven't affected the product's performance at all. Seller was very helpful and responded to e-mails promptly.Customer Review: Super sleek and super chic!

Product arrived quickly and is in perfect condition. Keyboard and mouse are really low profile and beautiful, paired easily with my MacBook, and just look great. Took me a minute to figure out where batteries go in keyboard - read directions. Overall - very pleased!Customer Review: Impeccable...
Summary: 5 Stars
A keyboard that commands style and turns heads. A great keyboard for people who truly value great design. The Apple Wireless Keyboard is impressively razor thin, yet, it is solid in build with virtually no flex at all. The keyboard is well balanced in design, and surprisingly lightweight. The aluminum has the same feel to match as the new aluminum Macs.
The wedge shaped keyboard adopts a minimalistic approach. If Apple could design a keyboard with only one or no buttons, believe me, they would. A bare minimum of keys are present, limited only to the necessary ones, with no less than what you would find on Macbooks. Aside from the keyboard indicator (that blinks during synchronization and powering up) it is invisible to the eye. There are no virtual keypads or any unnecessary lights apart from the Caps Lock indicator. The keys are flushed, requiring the just the right amount of touch and tactile feedback for each keystroke to be registered, producing the minimal amount sound from the resulting stroke. Mac users will feel at home with the modifier keys however windows users should be able to remap them.
Setup of the keyboard is by first installing 3 AA batteries which disappear into the design of the keyboard. Detecting the keyboard is intuitive on Mac, windows users might require some registry hack to enable pairing of the device.
The top row is adorned with control keys which takes precedence over the Function keys as a default. Although it is configurable, Apple is bold enough to assign these keys to increase the brightness of your screen, Expose, Dashboard, increase the volume or use it as media controls. The keyboard is perfect for use in the living room media center machine and you will have no hesitation in displaying this to guests.
However you look at it, there are just so many ways you can design a keyboard. Apple however, has delivered to us something that is more than just a keyboard - it is a time slice of innovation from Apple's design history; immortalized into our hearts forever.
Customer Review: Very Good Keyboard
Summary: 4 Stars
Nice, well built, keyboard that is more solid than it looks.
Appears to be the standard Mac Book keyboard without the Mac Book, that is, about a 90% keyboard.
Nice key feel with positive feedback about the only distraction is the lack of a DEL key so you'd better get used to using the backspace.
Pairing is a breeze and once it's locked on there is no way of really disrupting it. Even removing the batteries has no ill effects, even if you leave them out for a couple days (put in a new set of batteries and start typing -- no need to pair again).
Now if the price would come down....
