I wanted to love this keyboard. Small footprint was great for a crowded desk, and I loved the style. It ended up being nothing but problems. The keyboard would frequently cut out, or one press of a key would result in 5-10 of the letters appearing on the screen. First I put foam on the battery door to keep the connections and that seemed to work for a while but eventually the problems kept coming back and out to the trash it went. I'm back to using USB keyboards and mice, but I think I'll try Logitech- I have had great success with their wireless mice on my laptops. As I said, it's too bad- the design of this keyboard is great.

This wireless keyboard and mouse fits the space that I occupy with my iMac. It is compact and has good tactile touch. Due to its compact design you could easily transport both it and the mouse in a backpack with a laptop.
The underside of the mouse is where the USB receiver for both the keyboard and mouse is located. The receiver is plugged into any USB outlet. Docking the mouse onto the top of the keyboard will help preserve the two battery life which are included by Kensington.
These devices are supported both for Mac & PC as both icons are displayed on keyboard. Additionally, there are hot keys which allow you to eject a CD, search your hard drive; ope up email; launch your internet browser and a media key. Additional hot keys are located on the right side of the keyboard and they include a go back to a previous item or song (iTunes); play/pause; next track and volume buttons, up and down. The hot "buttons" are very small for my semi-clunky hands, however with
The mouse is designed for both left and right handed individuals. I am right handed. I leave my iMac on all of the time and I noted that when waking the computer you have to click on the mouse to activate the device.
The keyboard spacing for the keys could be just a little wider which would make a few less key stroke errors which i made in typing.
I would highly recommend this wireless keyboard and mouse for purchase by individuals looking for a compact wireless keyboard and mouse.
The only drawback is that there is not an led or light which would indicate on the keyboard that the Caps Lock is set.

Good: Small, thin, semi-usefull picture frame concept, (got is for $<30)

Bad: Line-of-site typically required, only functions well at less than 5-6 feet, the mouse seems to have less range than the keyboard.

I have stopped using the mouse, I use my old wireless mouse with a better range.

The keyboard is a dream to use. Love how easy the keys are to use and type with. It's like typing on your favorite laptop keyboard. The mouse doesn't have a back and forward toggle, but I like the feel of it. It's true the mouse goes to sleep and you have to wake it up by either scrolling or clicking, but I don't find it that annoying. I can live with it.

I had this for a few months and for a time it worked perfectly. About a week ago the wireless connection started to short out. The keyboard would only work in certain places and the mouse was VERY finicky. I tried changing out the batteries and the USB port it was plugged into, but still the same problem. The design of the USB receiver leaves something to be desired, with the end sticking out so far on that thin piece, leaves room for it to break if bumped. (that is what happened as well.) When calling the Kensington Warranty folks to cash in on the 5-year warranty... nope, the problem was due to misuse.... Misuse?? bumping the computer? Not a good experience AT ALL.
