I second the recommendation of the Logitech Easy-switch K811 keyboard. The "on/off" switch is on the right-hand edge of the keyboard and requires some effort to activate. In addition, the action of the keyboard is very uniform and smooth; in fact, it's one of the best keyboards I have ever typed on. The keyboard is a true Mac keyboard; that is, all the keys are in the right place. I got mine a few days ago at the price of $79, but Amazon has increased the price to about $84 since then, at least in the U.S.
One point worth mentioning in view of traveling with the keyboard: the battery is built-in and rechargeable; so the user should make sure it is fully charged before traveling or have a source of USB power to hand. Using the default backlight setting, Logitech says the battery will last ten days if the user types an average of two hours per day. With the backlight disabled, Logitech says the battery might last up to one year before it has to be charged.
