I finally got one. I could never go back to the old standard Mac keyboard. But I don’t understand why they’ve remapped the top keys (f1, f2, etc.). Their previous standard for expose and dashboard was f9, f10, f11, and f12 (the keys on the far right of the main section). Thats what I got used to. Now they’ve changed it and I’m having a hard time getting used to it . I know you can re-map the keys but they’ve labeled the keys with icons so it would be a bit weird. Other than that, it is perfect.
I’m addicted to my chicklets keyboard! It takes so little effort to type and I really make less typos. I’ve got one at home and at one and work now. Whenever I have to type on a regular keyboard, it feels extremely uncomfortable and ‘eeeeewwww’ :)
I have on of these at work, if you like slamming your keys hard, you should be a bit carefull with these. They’re kinda fragile, the Caps Lock key is nearly dead after 1 month but i gotta admit, they look and feel ace!

January 1st, 2008 at 8:13 ∞Am I the only one who thinks the mapping of the keys is just fine? I’m hoping the next generation of MacBook Pro’s get the same mapping AND keys.
Oh btw: I have 2 (one for home, one for work) and love them!

I’ve remapped all of my exposé/dashboard/spaces keys and I don’t care about the labels on the key…

Got used to it quite quickly… and love it. Don’t know why I didn’t think of it in my 5*3*2007.
