:) Hi guys,

Here is the link from Amazon.  BTW, it is also Apple certified.

If you search for lightning keyboards, a few different options come up.  Like I 
said, the Kensington tempted me for a bit.  It was $10 cheeper with no extra 
keys or stand.

Something I can’t find on the keyboard is an escape key.  Is this unusual?

Oh & yes, it should work with all lightning cable devices.  It isn’t 
rechargeable either.

I have played around with it more today, & although, it is a cool idea, I think 
I’ll return mine.  :)

If anyone decides to order one, report back on your thoughts.  It’s nice to get 
a variety of feedback.

BTW, to give you a quick key layout.  The very bottom row goes, home, control, 
option, command, spacebar, command, option, then the arrow keys.  The bonus 
keys are on the top row.  A grouping of 4 on the far left, & another grouping 
of 4 on the far right.  They go as follows: previous, play/pause, next, lock, 
mail, mute, vol-down, vol-up.

HTH,
Traci
