I needed something smaller than a wireless keyboard and mouse for the couch and my newly constructed pc theater. for the price and the features this is the best deal. It comes with a receiver the size of a thumb nail and a cord to charge the device. If you want the maximum range be sure the receiver is plugged into a front usb port. The red transmit LED (that lights up everytime a key is pressed or the touchpad is used) should be either dimmed or moved to the top\side\back of the device. I don't need to see it light up this often it is annoying. Other than that the clicking sound of each key press isn't to bad it's actually quite comforting. I would not get this device if you're going to be doing anything other than adding convenience for light use but that doesn't mean this device doesn't do everything a normal wireless kb and mouse does. It has custom buttons and media buttons. With Windows xp and 7 it required no additional software downloads. Plug and go. Thanks for the awesome product.Just received my unit. Packaging was sturdy, manual wasn't the best translation but not bad, the keyboard itself is PERFECT! It's light but sturdy and feels good in my hands. Plugged the adapter in my linux (zorin os 6) netbook and it works fine right off the bat. No set up, installation, or fuss. Touchpad is responsive and even the special function keys all work. I highly recommend this for any htpc or casual use setup!So I did a little research online on the wireless mini keyboards and saw that a few of them offer the same features, bla blah blah...so being skeptical, I decided to go with the Hausbell, 14.99 you cant go wrong...if its a bad product, I just lost 15 bucks, if its good, I will buy it for my other systems at home...the other mini keyboards go for around $25-$45 dollars so from the get go, I was not expecting much from this...I received the order in about 1 week with free shipping and tested out the first day I got it. I was shocked how well it works. I haven't tried the other mini keyboards, but I dont care for it as:
1)the price is half of what the others cost
2)its does the job...It does all that I want a mini wireless keyboard to do.
That is all...I dont write much reviews...but this is a steal for the price. XP and Windows 7 is just plug and play , no driver installation needed. The key baord is big enough so you can type with minimal mistakes. There is a reason why this product is getting all 5 stars..it works well..it works really well for the price.
I especailly like the pad...on the let side, you can navigate the mouse, on the immediate right, is a cool scroll feature...Any issues, I will try to update here.I can not speak of longevity.. But, I've been using the device for a few days now and I am very satified. I have seen other such devices being compared to more expensive, high end devices and that is incorrect. If your looking for something that is cheap and works. Then I recommend it. Light, not much bigger than a cell phone, and takes a bit to get used too. Unless you use qwerty kb's often. Has worked on Linux & Windows7 without issue.. Will edit review if any of this changes in the near future.. hope this helps...Definitely the best mini keyboard on the market. Rubber keys have a nice feel and don't stick like the cheap plastic keys of other keyboards.
