not bad, Feb 11 2011

This review is from: ADESSO WKB-4000BM Slimtouch WKB-4000UB Wireless Bt Wht with Touchpad Mac (Personal Computers)
Easy, useful. The one thing they could have done better is to mimic the mac standard keyboard more closely, with more similar key location and button-press force. Two-fingered scroll would be nice too. I don't think it supports multi-touch either, which is going to be a pain with 10.7. But it's s fine, functional thing.[EDIT] One recent discovery I don't like: it doesn't take rechargeable batteries. Not a fan of filling landfills with toxic crap.

only one of its kind, Jun 3 2011

This review is from: ADESSO WKB-4000BM Slimtouch WKB-4000UB Wireless Bt Wht with Touchpad Mac (Personal Computers)
This is the only Mac-specific keyboard with a touchpad in front. I hate constantly switching between keyboard and mouse, so this is the only keyboard for me.Pluses:
Only Mac keyboard with a touchpad.
This is much easier to type on than Apple's tiny aluminum keyboard. You can find the keys, and you can feel them respond.
Wireless (you can indeed use rechargeable batteries; I use Ni-Mn ones with no problem).
Minuses:
The keys are too weak. I constantly get two or more characters with a single key press. This is a weakness with the keyboard, not with the system settings. Firmer touch and stronger springs, please.
The left- and right-click buttons also are weak. I don't know how long they'll last. And the feet. Will they break? The keyboard is light, but I would rather err on the side of strength.
The touchpad response was so-so at first, but is getting better as it is broken in. Three out of the four people who use my workstation use a mouse instead of the touchpad (you can use either one at any time). This is partly habit on their part, partly stubbornness on my part.
The Ins key (and possibly others) are leftovers from the non-Mac version of the keyboard, and are inappropriate. Macs don't have insert keys. I had to find and install a keyboard utility program to disable that key, since on a Mac it becomes the help key and I was constantly pressing it by accident and getting yanked over to a help tab in Firefox in another workspace.
When booting, the Mac frequently can't connect to the keyboard, even after identifying it by name. At other times, I have to enter a multidigit code to connect. I don't know if the fault is the keyboard's or the Mac's. If I turn on the keyboard before booting, the connection usually goes smoothly.
A USB port would be nice. Wireless is nice, but battery life isn't great and I would use a direct connection if available.
Summary:
If I had to buy another Mac keyboard, I would still get this one. It needs to be physically stronger but is far better than what Apple supplies. It is saving me a lot of trouble and is getting better the longer I use it.

Two AAA batteries not enough, April 2 2012

My biggest complaint about this product is Adesso's decision to reduce the number of batteries from 4, as in its PC version that comes with a separate USB dongle receiver, to 2 in this keyboard. It is just not enough juice. After about 30-45 minutes of continuous use, the keyboard becomes sluggish and the cursor's movements erratic. A good keyboard otherwise: very nice keys, light and sturdy. Need to go back to four batteries, better yet, make it four AA batteries.
Listmania!
