Special Keys In Computer Keyboard

I received this fine keyboard and mouse and find both superb, especially given the ridiculously great price from B&H. Who ever heard of any good computer product for this price? But the problem for Mac users is that there are no usable function keys for all the special Mac functions: EXPOSE and others. After receiving this two days ago, I began using it heavily in my work as a visual artist. The keyboard performs great and so does the mouse. But when I realized I had no special function keys, I immediately called Kensington to see if there were some work-around ways to get those special Mac features. There are not, and the Kensington rep specifically told me they have no keyboards that will provide such Mac features. Instead of trying to return this to B&H, I decided to keep the set because I need a new wired mouse anyway. And a back-up keyboard is always a good idea if you use your computer for work. By the way, I ought to mention that I wanted wired everything because my beloved wife has electromagnetic hypersensitivity, and all wireless devices producing RF are grim for her. I have a special plastic covering the front of my iMac that reduces RF emissions to an extremely low level. So now the whole set-up is safe for her to be near, even though she cannot USE the computer herself. I have now ordered another keyboard from B&H (MAFK318B) that specifically states it supports all Mac function keys. I gave a five-star rating because of the quality of the set. I don't want its reputation downgraded just because it did not work in every way on my computer.

I wanted a MAC keyboard with the correct special keys, and this fills the bill. It has deeply contoured keys so the feel is great, and I like the mechanical keys. Definitely recommend this keyboard for MAC users.

It is great having a full keyboard, including numeric keypad, and related special keys. The size is nice -- allows keys to have a bit more space around them than on the Apple Magic Keyboard. It also is great to be able to easily switch the keyboard to the iPhone and iPad.

The keyboard it's simple and it feels smooth when pressing keys, really flat straight forward, no special keys added The mouse it's fine just a regular mouse nothing special, I like it.

It seems the keys are spaced apart there is more room the keys are raised and I just really like like this keyboard a lot compared to there one that came with the computer. This one is like my old one and I love it .

This really makes your iPad into a computer. There is nothing this keyboard cannot do. The keys have good tactile feel and the trackpad is very good.

It is a KEYBOARD, nothing special. All I wanted was a simple, no frills keyboard.

Like many, my computer is in the bedroom. Late night sessions meant hunting for keys by the light of the monitor and keying slowly to keep the noise down. More time wasted than productive. It became obvious a new keyboard would be needed. This one met all requirements for an acceptable price. It was a pleasant surprise when it arrived. It's solidly built. Despite its thinness it has a surprising weight that prevents it from shifting around under fast typing. Its laptop-style keys require less travel and finger extension, which suits me fine. The illumination is mostly uniform and is controlled with a dedicated key (four levels of intensity). I didn't bother to install the included software because the extra media functions weren't needed and because it's Windows-only. Al-in-all I am perfectly satisfied. Be aware that this keyboard is not for gamers, but for those who might prefer a laptop-style keyboard-- typists.

Turned my iPad into a small laptop computer and protects the iPad at the same time. Keyboard lights up to make seeing keys at night a breeze. It also attaches magnetically which makes it easy to remove for reading in portrait mode. Trackpad is very smooth to the touch, very close to my MacBook Pro. It gives you the best of both worlds, a laptop or tablet. Best thing I ever bought for my iPad.

I am so happy that I stumbled upon this keyboard! I work many late hours on my home computer in the dark, so finally being able to see the keys instead of guessing is wonderful! The keyboard looks and feels better than any I've ever had and the light illuminating from the keys is bright enough to see but not overpowering. I would highly recommend this product to anyone looking for an illuminated keyboard.
