ADESSO WKB-4000BB 87 Normal Keys Bluetooth SlimTouch Touchpad Keyboard

Pros: It's black and would make a good doorstop.

Cons: Part of an HTPC system I built for a family member. Paired up the kb and it seemed to work. Shipped the system. System installed. KB no longer links to the system. Tried uninstalling, re-pairing, etc. multiple times. 30 days up. So sorry.

One egg only because I have to.

Other Thoughts: The new Logitech RF K400 kb with Touchpad works beatifully.

Pros: Looks just like a laptop keyboard, its perfect for a HTPC, and decently built

Cons: You cant use this without pairing it with the computer every single time the computer is turned out.. defeats the whole purpose of wireless if I need to keep connecting a physical keyboard and mouse to log into windows then pair with the adesso keyboard.. I DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS WITH THE PRICE THIS HIGH, and THE SUPPORT HAS NOT RESPONDED TO ME FOR WEEKS, I called and Emailed...

Other Thoughts: FAILURE!!!! (do they have a patent on these wireless keyboards, why does logitech not create one with this design.. i dont get it)

Pros: Nice size and weight, I liked the mouse pad on the keyboard.

Cons: (Windows 7 Pro 32 bit) I was excited about this Kybd at first, but quickly got disappointed. Once you pair up this keyboard and get it working, then turn off the PC, come back later and turn on the PC, the keyboard is no longer connected. In addition, because it was loaded before, it will not pair up the second time unless you totally delete the keyboard in devices and go through the whole pairing process again. Totally not worth it, and a big pain in the rear end. A non tech person would totally hate this keyboard. I had to figure the above process out on my own as there was no help or FAQ about this on the mfg website.

Other Thoughts: Save you money and get a normal wirless keyboard that will not need to be installed everytime you turn on your PC.

Pros: Bluetooth. can get this baby to go up to a range with no problems or lag from on side of my house to the other (about 50 feet). can type and use the touchpad with ease.

Cons: I dont know who keeps hitting the connect button but stop it... kindof stinks when i have to reconnect it after the 3rd time in a hour if someone hits the bad place for the pair button. wish they would have put in in the back or somewhere where you cant bump it.

Other Thoughts: For other people with range problems, are you: using the card it came with and if you are, are there any other devices in the house which could cause interferance. are you going through conctrete walls. will write back after 3 months to give better rating.

Pros: laptop-like buttons, low travel. Well, may be depends on the laptop, but pretty good feel for the keys. Good range. I don't know, looks good and works.

Cons: I use rechargable batteries, 1300 mAh, and it goes through a freshly charged set in about 2-3 weeks. I don't even use it too much. Seems kinda too often. May be it's me.
Setting up in windows is annoying, and every now and then you have to redo it. For some reason it just doesn't recognize it any more, until you reenter the code. That's the annoying part.

Other Thoughts: NOTE: I called adesso and ordered a second receiver and put in on my second computer, so I can control it from the bed. The idea was to bring the keyboard whereever I go around the house and have it work with the TV (with HTPC) or my main PC. But obviously you can only have it configured for 1 machine. If I configure it for the TV, it doesn't work with the other PC. And vice versa. So now, every time I switch rooms I have to reenter the f#kin code again.

Pros: Wireless (Bluetooth)
Connects easily (XP)
Comfortable on the couch
Worked out of the box and works great for me
Newegg

Cons: Expensive
A little bigger than expected
No media keys/buttons

Other Thoughts: Writing this review with it the Adesso slimtouch is great for HTPC fans that don't mind the touch mouse format. The keyboard is adequate and the overall feel is solid. The lack of media buttons are the only real flaw hence the missing egg. I haven't really tried using it say 15 feet away which may be a problem for some, but for a small room 40" plasma HTPC setup it accomadates me just fine. Batteries were a nice touch. Can't wait to use it on 7. Newegg supplies me with almost all of my electronics, they are top notch, keep up the good work guys.

Pros: Good battery life - only replaced batteries once in 6 months (and then realized it wasn't a battery problem, but someone unplugged my Bluetooth adapter!). No range problems within my basement, but the farthest I get is about 20' away. (Bluetooth adapter is on the back side of the HTPC in the cabinet, and the keyboard doesn't have a problem with it.)

Cons: A bit spendy. Tight key layout, but that's what makes it a small keyboard. I disagree completely with the Home/Delete/End/Insert placements - they seem randomly placed. I'd swap the Home and Delete keys to make it more functional.

Other Thoughts: No real customization options - trackpad sensitivity, touch sensitivity, etc. I knew this before buying, so it was a nonissue. (The sensitivity is just fine for me.)

This keyboard does not work (on my system) at POST, which I should have expected. No biggie, just have to drag a USB keyboard over when I need to play with BIOS. Have to disable the BIOS keyboard warning, though, or you won't boot up. :)

Pros: Good feel, good response, good battery life.

Cons: Having to turn the switch off when not in use to conserve the battery. Some keys feel somewhat cheap after extended use.

Other Thoughts: This keyboard is not for heavy use - but for occasional use with a media PC or internet surfing. It has been very dependable for the time I've used it (3+ months). As per other people's comments here, I've turmed the keyboard off after each use since I've had it and I've yet to replace the batteries. Even leaving it on overnight and using it the next day did not drain the batteries (as some have claimed). Just use this keyboard as it was intended; close proximity and turned on during use and off when not in use and you'll be fine.

Pros: compact, wireless, built-in touchpad

Cons: completely unreliable. after typing just a few characters and generates teXT THAt loOKS likE thIS.
The SHIFT-key get stuck. Sometimes it undoes itself. Other times, you have to press the SHIFT-key on the laptop to reset the SHIFT state; but then it gets stuck again when using this bluetooth keyboard.

Other Thoughts: pretty pathetic for such an expensive device and it doesn't even work

Pros: easy to connect

Cons: Unreliable (mine died after 3 months... 19 days after the warranty).
Furthermore, it's a pain to use because if you're trying to uses normal single-key typing, it works fine, but key combo's (Alt+anything, win+anything), you've got to hit it with JUST the right timing or it doesn't register properly.

Other Thoughts: don't waste your money
