Chris, Can you use this keyboard with a regular Mac desktop computer?

Is this a full size keyboard?

I received this today after only ordering it yesterday. I got it
directly from Apple.
It was very easy to set up. Just press the one and only large round
button on the top right hand side to put it in pairing or discovery
mode. Then on my iPhone 4 I went to settings, bluetooth, bluetooth
to turn it on. While in there the keyboard was detected and was
marked not paired. I thus double tapped on the keyboard and it
started to connect. I was then asked to type the pairing code onto
my keyboard then press the return key. The pairing then completed
and was successful.
It is extremely responsive and comfortable to type on. The keys are
raised and large enough for me. Basically if you have a standard
mac or PC keyboard, then you should be right at home. Only with
this keyboard your control key is the second key in from the bottom
left, along with, in this order, option and command, which replaces
alt and windows respectively. This is exactly the same on a Macbook/
Macbook Pro/Macbook Air keyboard.
I was able to update my status on Facebook and Twitter directly
from the keyboard, as well as navigate my iPhone 4. I was even able
to remove apps from the app switcher directly from the keyboard. I
can also control media playback if I wish.
Now my advice is if you are going to be away from it for some time,
press and hold the one and only large round button on the top right
hand side for about 4 seconds. This will completely switch off the
keyboard. Now providing bluetooth is still on, the next time you
press the above button, they will be automatically paired. Not sure
what would happen if I turn the keyboard off and then turn
bluetooth off.
Hope this is a good review of the amazing Apple Wireless Keyboard.
It was certainly worth the £60.
