Re: suggestions for bluetooth keyboard needed

2014-10-27 Thread RobH.
Depends where you are and how luggable you want it.  Mine was from a 
specialist supplier in the UK, and it is full size with function keys lined 
up in blocks of 4 along the top, just like a real Windows keyboard.  The 
gutters between keyboard sections are there too.  Can't remember name of it 
now,  just where I bought it from and quite cheaply considering.

Otherwise, you'll get directed to the Amazon basic BT keyboard which is 
generally accepted as plenty good enough and very good for the price.

Hi,

I know I have seen discussion on this but haven't until now needed a BT 
keyboard so have not paid much attention.

I need a good keyboard.  My wife has one but the keys are so flat and close 
together that I can't even really use it.

Is there one that has good pressure feedback and where the keys are not too 
close together?

thanks.

Dan Beaver

Re: suggestions for bluetooth keyboard needed

2014-10-27 Thread RobH.
Ahaa, now I don't like the Apple one,  for the reason originally given by 
the questioner; too smooth and flat to maintain accurate location for long. 
Ok, we know it can be done, some are better at it than others;  I'm one of 
the others, so get things more tactile, clunky even, it suits my fingers; 
that's what my computing career was brought up on.

OT: does anyone remember PC keyboards that had just 10 function keys to the 
left of the main letter keyboard; none of those along the top.

Or:  the Sun Spark keyboard that had function keys in both places, all along 
the top and down the side.  Specialised UNIX keys no doubt.

Re: suggestions for bluetooth keyboard needed

2014-10-27 Thread Raul A. Gallegos
Hi, I personally recommend the Logitech K811 keyboard. You can pair it 
with up to 3 devices and it's a good solid keyboard with a physical 
switch for the power on/off. The keys are spaced right and are 
comfortable to type on. It runs for around $80 or less if you find a 
deal. I got mine from Amazon.

RE: suggestions for Bluetooth keyboard needed

2014-10-27 Thread Merv Keck
Hi,

I am using a Sharkk with two K's Backlit keyboard. The light is more or less
not essential for me but that is in the name since Amazon has several models
and that is the better of them or so I am told. I know of several others who
like theirs as well as I do. It is about halfway between the size of a full
sized keyboard and one of those little miniature keyboards that were all the
rage a year ago, Laughs! I couldn't even figure out how to hit the home keys
on those little mini keyboards and I have pretty long, skinny fingers. This
one has no numeric keypad but I suppose neither does the big Apple keyboard
that I now have paired with the Apple TV. And this Sharkk backlit BT
keyboard will also work with windows if I so choose.

I forget the cost but I think was about $40 or less. 

Hope that helps,

Merv

RE: suggestions for bluetooth keyboard needed

2014-10-27 Thread Sieghard Weitzel
No, neither the K810 nor the K811 has a NumPad. They are basically the same 
size as the Apple Wireless keyboard, but as Raul pointed out, the physical 
slider switch to turn them on or off beats the button on the Apple Wireless 
keyboard hands down and the ability to pair it with, for example, an iPhone, 
iPad or iPod Touch and an Apple TV rocks. The K810 is basically the same 
keyboard, but it is made for Windows, e.g. it has a Windows Key and Alt Key 
instead of Command and Options. I accidently had ordered the K810 at first, but 
since I was strictly looking for a keyboard for my iPhone and Apple TV I ended 
up sending it back (I had also bought it via Amazon) and ordered the K811 
instead. Another advantage is the fact that it has a built-in rechargeable 
battery and it uses a standard micro USB cable to charge. In the case of a 
keyboard which uses very little power I think that's nicer than dealing with 2 
AA Batteries as is the case with the apple Wireless keyboard. When it comes to 
more expensive, premium keyboards I would definitely recommend the K811 
although my experience has only been with the Apple Wireless keyboard and the 
Logitech K811.


Regards,
Sieghard

 deal. I got mine from Amazon.

 I need a good keyboard.  My wife has one but the keys are so flat and

 Is there one that has good pressure feedback and where the keys are 
 not too close together?

Re: suggestions for bluetooth keyboard needed

2014-10-27 Thread Joseph FreeTech
It is safe to conclude that number pads are not included in this keyboard 
form factor. It is rare to find a laptop with an additional numpad, so it is 
probably rare if not impossible to find a keyboard meant to be portable to 
come with a numpad. Remember, the goal here is small, so adding a number pad 
will increase the size of a portable keyboard, which goes against the 
mindset of manufacturing such a device.

Joseph the free tech guy!
 All are welcome to write me off list if absolutely any help is needed

suggestions for bluetooth keyboard needed

2014-10-26 Thread Dan Beaver
Hi,

I know I have seen discussion on this but haven't until now needed a BT 
keyboard so have not paid much attention.

I need a good keyboard.  My wife has one but the keys are so flat and close 
together that I can't even really use it.  

Is there one that has good pressure feedback and where the keys are not too 
close together?

thanks.
