Yeah, I can understand missing it if your screen is even remotely dark. They should have used a gray keyboard for the middle, or not bothered with the middle keyboard at all.

I call photo stretching.

Wow, good catch guys! I just found a Nokia bluetooth keyboard "used" (New, but been bought, and stored privately) for 25 bucks.

So I have canceld the order for the mini-keyboard and instead, and am going to pick up the Nokia keyboard this weekend in Oslo.

So hate to dissapoint those who were waiting, but I won't do a review anyways. :(

Hope I'm forgiven? :)

But yeah, doubt this Brando keyboard is cracked up to be all that it is, especially after taking a look at that wicked(ly) streched hand. :o

Just received and it works pretty well !
Unfortunately not all keys are recognized well, so i've used xmodmap + xev
to remap the wrong/unrecognized keys, here you can find (Italian language sorry...) an useful new map to use with the new keyboard :)
Seems it consumes 'only' 50mA@5v :)

Awesome! Thanks for posting your comments/thought, LOcutus! It sounds like a neat little keyboard.

The cost is intriguing, but with shipping and a new cable, isn't that much more than an eBay-ed iGo. Hmmmm. Far too many options! :)

Care to post a pic with it next to your IT L0cutus?

Thanks for bringing us the info Locutus! And I'd also like to see a side by side pic of the keyboard and your IT. :)
