This keyboard with integrated mouse only came out this week in the UK and I’ve no idea why it took so long because I would have thought anyone with a media center TV were crying out for this form factor.
I highly recommend it as a remote control for a MythTV box. It’s a good small size (it’s smaller than it looks in the picture), the integrated trackpad is responsive and large and has both mouse buttons. There’s zero config needed for Linux (at least in Arch Linux). The range is good. There’s no useless extra media buttons that no-one uses. In short, it’s perfect.
is impressed with your pertinent and concise mini-review of a quality keyboard.
It’s the ‘WRITE’ TYPE of thing to have in your PAD and something to get your HANDS ON.
‘LETTERS’ know how you get on with it.
I have an older, larger version, one with a joystick. This would probably be my next purchase as the joystick is already playing up in just under a year, and previous ones always had to binned when the joystick went.
I do like media buttons – handy for web and my folder with TV series, but otherwise yes, redundant.
Is there a way to make third button click somehow with it on Linux?
(Well, these is third button emulation in X Windows etc but…)
