Maybe here, I mentioned it a while back.

I have one on my Intel iMac at work (1st gen) and my upgraded GigE at  
home, and neither of them recognize the keys at startup.

I have several old Mac keyboards laying about at work and one at home.  
I just plug the old keyboard into the new one if I need to start in  
safe mode.

Makes recovery from problem a bit of a hassle, but otherwise I really  
like the new keyboards.
