Conclusive Thoughts

The Rii Mini Bluetooth wireless keyboard is an interesting item that we could use on all our machines that support Bluetooth technology; for the ones that do not have it, they have supplied in the box a small USB Bluetooth dongle, which can be used with the software of our choice.

During the testing period, I used the keyboard to type a little and I cannot say it is as comfortable as a normal keyboard, but it does what it is meant to do, meaning that we can use it with a Media Center, browsing for short periods of time, but not Office work. The Pad can be used much easier than a trackball to move the mouse pointer and the little joystick which takes the functions of the direction keys is also easy to operate (I have even tried to play a little NFS World Online with this joystick and I could say I managed to finish the race on a decent position, from the first try).

The Laser Pointer is another interesting feature that this small device incorporates and is very helpful for presentations, especially because we do not have to hold it in our hands as a separate device, along the keyboard. The keyboard is also backlit, so we can use it even in low light conditions.

This multifunctional device can be found at the usb.brando.com website for about $62.
