New Keyboard


SpiceWare

1,479 views

Back in January of 2013 I picked up home theater keyboard for use with the Mac mini that drives my HDTV. The keyboard worked OK, though typing on it was a bit tedious and I had minor communication issues with the USB dongle that necessitated the use of a USB extension cord to get it out from behind all the AV equipment.

For the past few months I've been having issues with the mouse buttons - they wouldn't always respond to presses. Trying to double-click in particular was getting to be rather annoying.

Yesterday, after picking up my new iPhone 6S Plus at the Apple store in the Galleria, I stopped in at MicroCenter to take a look at other options. None of the HTPC keyboards appealed to me, so I wandered over to their Apple department where I discovered Henge Docks' Clique - it turns Apple's bluetooth keyboard and trackback into a single unit for easy use in your lap:

It works well.

Get 'em while you can. Apple's discontinuing those models in favor of their new ones.

 

I haven't tried one out yet, but a few people I've talked to really don't like the new keys. For how we use them at work (on mobile carts that are powered down when not in use), being forced to plug them in to recharge them is going to be a hassle.
