I am a recent new owner of an iMac with a 21″ screen (replacing an old PC laptop). This Mac has its place on my desk next to my iPad, my printer, and in front of my 26″ television. I had a wired, full-sized keyboard for the Mac and a smaller, Bluetooth keyboard for the Pad, leaving very little room for mouse travel, note taking, and other desk tasks.

Keyboard, Review 0

As I begin to type this review, my heart is filled with sadness. Don’t get me wrong, the Das Keyboard may be the best keyboard I have ever used.

And truth be told, which is paramount in any review, I have put off this review for too many months. I kept telling myself that was because I just needed more time to use the Das Keyboard before I felt confident to write a review. I was lying to myself. I just wanted to keep using it.

Zippy BT500 and LuxePad Bluetooth Keyboards – Review

Features, iPad, iPhone, iPod Touch, Keyboard, Macbook, Macbook Air, Macbook Pro, Review 0

These are the iconic products of modern day gadget freaks. They’re hard plastic, “leather-like” or faux this or that, and you can operate them easily only if you’ve had lots of experience with dainty teacups and Saturday morning origami classes. If you like the feel of a carpenter’s framing hammer, you’d better go back to your cave and forget these teeny keyboards. They’re smaller than your belt sander.
