This review is from: Cideko AK08 Air Keyboard Conqueror All-in-one Keyboard
Pros:
it works, keys can be programmed. works with htpc and p3s/ retails too high.. more like a 6o dollar controller. its kind of like a ps3 controller with the xbox chat pad.
Cons:
i have used this for about a year now... major downside for htpc is that the keyboard doesnt illuminate... really hard to type in the dark after a movie or show ends, or at night.. i turn off the gyro and just use the mouse simulation with the right and left stick. sometimes when typing too fast, keys dont register. if my controlleror computer goes to sleep i have to go back in the av map program and click start again... this only happens every once and a while.... also when the remote goes to sleep, when i wake it the gyro is automatically on... i have to turn it off, and again when the keyboard isnt illuminated in the dark its hard to see... it would be nice to start the controller program and run it automatically everytime i turn on my pc... another downside is that there isnt a programmable map key application for mac... my mini would make a better htpc but the remote ties everything together with interfacing, and therfore is a big deal for me...
if all of the above were added, this would kill the market.
