Speaking of Logitech, since Tom sent the keyboard URL I have been doing
some more googling around and found some expensive wireless keyboards
with trackpads (in the $125 range) and one ... the Logitech MediaBoard
Pro Bluetooth Keyboard for $69 !! that is meant for use (30' range)
with the Play Station 3.

At Smalldog it mentions that this keyboard is programmable for the Mac
but Logitech says nothing about that or usuge with computers ... just
mentions playstation 3.

I can't find a down loadable manual at Logitech or elsewhere... :(
I'm not a gamer... does anyone know if a keyboard for Play Station 3
could work with a computer ... specifically a white Tiger MacBook?

To continue:
I use the Logitech cordless optical trackman on the iMac that I use
for EyeTV in the living room. I just checked it and with used
batteries it was still working from 8 feet away.
I could use one of the bluetooth keyboards, but I haven't sprung for
that.

Yes, but those are all PC keyboards mostly with separate mice except
for the expensive ( $185 )one made by Apple and it has no integral
pointer / mousepad. The reason I am looking for such is to turn a
white Tiger macbook with a broken unreadable screen into a multimedia
center machine (mostly for downloading and playing movies) by placing
it in the cabinet and hooking the video to a the large screen LDC
digital TV and adding an external drive to it.
It's working great except that it requires getting up from the couch
and kneeling before the TV cabinet for every adjustment etc. and
THAT is a REAL nuisance and kind of defeats everything.
(So would having a keyboard with a separate mouse as there is no
where to place the mouse but one's lap.)
