Additional Specifications
Hot Keys: Multimedia
Keyboard/Keypad Wireless Technology: Infrared
Keyboard/Keypad Wireless Operating Distance: 30 ft
Strengths: Great Range
Weakness: Mouse leaves something to be desired
I had no problems getting this keyboard to work with my HTPC. Just plugged it in and it worked right away without any confirguration. Range is excellent provided your keyboard has line of sight to the receiver. The mouse is not really that great. I have used laptop mice with the eraser stick before and had no problem using that, however the mouse stick on this keyboard acts differently. In order...
Strengths: all in one compact design for Win Media Center edition
Weakness: IR receiver signal is unstable, keys located too close together, the mouse pointer has serious functioning problem
If you do not have a Media Center remote control, but do have an IR receiver, this might be the product for you. Otherwise, this product will make no sense to have. I went ahead order this product even though I do have the remote control and only found out that this product is way more cumbersome and so much less functional than the other type of media wireless keyboard. Here are few things that...
Strengths: 30 feet wireless reception
Weakness: Does not feel comfortable in lap
Quality Product! A must for those who hook up Windows Media Center to a Television! Very easy to install. Keys are made for this application. Great job Microsoft! 2 thumbs up!
Strengths: Good basic media center keyboard; looks cool
Weakness: No included remote; mouse key is klutzy; no plug-in mouse port
My purpose of getting this was for a dedicated media room computer. I'm not planning on using it to do alot of typing, but to do some web-surfing and basic media control. I only needed about 10-15 feet of range. Thus far, I am quite satisfied. I hate the mouse scrolling, like others report! What they should have done is provide an option to plug a mouse into the keyboard. That would have been...
Strengths: Compact, accurate key board, useable distance
Weakness: Mouse, location of IR transmitter
This is one of the most accurate cordless keyboards I've used, more so than the HP version that came with my system or the Gyration models I've used. It has good distance and the keyboard has a nice "feel" to it. Two complaints: first, the mouse portion is essentially useless and second is the placement of the IR transmitter. Please, move it to the center, improve the mouse and this keyboard is...

Windows XP remote keyboard
Strengths: Light-weight and very small; Back-lit keys (side controls only, not keyboard); Works at distances stated; Learn feature to program other device remotes into this one
Weakness: Mouse button is a pain; Needs XP MCE infrared reciever or similiar (not provided)
I was surprised at how small it is without compromising the keyboard area. It is very thin and light-weight. Full-size keyboard/keys. Back-lit buttons that toggle on/off (only on the side controls, not the keyboard itself). It actually will transmit at the 30 ft distance stated but that might be w/ the help of the MS MCE remote reciever I'm using. The unit doesn't come with a reciever. You'll...
