Kensington has GREAT costumer service September 19, 2008 R. Lyons (columbia, SC) I got the Ci70 as a replacement for another Kensington wireless mouse and keyboard set which the mouse quit working. After troubleshooting a few minutes they sent out a replacementment. Unfortunately the unit they sent did not have a working mouse (It happens) so I called again. They appologized and said that the unit I had was not in stock but they would "upgrade" and send me the Ci70 set. It has worked great!!! Love the style and docking and basic mouse.
Only drawback I have is that I have not figured out how to use it with my laptop docking switch. It may not be compatible.
Slim and effective August 15, 2008 J Sherwood (Burke, VA United States) I just purchased this product and so I can't speak to its longevity. However, I can say that this was exactly what I was looking for in a keyboard. I do a lot of typing, and I love laptop keyboards for this sort of thing. The low pressure required to get a keypress, the small amount of depression required, etc. If you're not looking for a keyboard that feels like a laptop, you won't be happy. If you're looking for something you can take around with you and don't mind that feel, this is quite portable. The receiver handily stores in the mouse so that you don't have to go searching for it when you toss it in your bag. Speaking of the mouse however, I'm not a fan. It has a very small scroll wheel, and is not what you'd call ergonomically shaped, due to the either-handedness of the design. For the price though, the keyboard is good enough.
One very legitimate complaint is the inclusion of an apple key and a windows key. The order is apple, ctrl, windows, alt on the left side, and the apple key works as a windows key on Vista, at least. This is a killer, but you can get around it with a program like SharpKeys, which uses a registry hack to remap it (mine is set to ctrl, so I find the control key by feeling far left, and alt by far right). As long as this lasts two+ years, I'll be happy.
POS July 19, 2008 J. Devine (Boston, MA) 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.
AAUG review July 10, 2008 Robert A. Thomas (anchorage, alaska) 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.
OK for the money June 30, 2008 Justin Randall 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.
