Anyone know anything about either of these Mini Wireless Media Keyboards

GSXRMovistar · 19 Feb 2010 at 22:37

Looking for a small wireless keyboard with built in trackball/trackpad that I can use for my media centre. Will only be used on the odd occassion when I need to make config changes or updates but would be handy as it would save space/cables over the existing standard keyboard and mouse I have stuffed in the AV cabinet.

Looking around on ebay I've spotted these two cheap far east models, both seem to tick the boxes (Not too fussed on build quality etc as long as they work) but I'm unable to find any reviews or details around them. So OcUK can you shed any light on either of these:-

No idea unfortunately, I've only ever use the Keysonic ones in HTPC builds which seem to work quite well, and are resonably priced at around £30.

I personally have the Logitech Dinovo mini, which whilst it looks very nice, it's nowhere near as easy to use as the Keysonic, and a hell of a lot pricier too!

The one in the first picture looks alright. How much is it?

I got one of these keyboards 3 weeks ago for £25 http://www.ortek.com/prod_detail.as...>>Wireless Keyboard>>WKB-2000&ppid=101&id=156

Search the net to find where, its very good for the money and the short cut/media centre keys are very useful as well as the number pad built into the trackpad

That doesn't look too bad either, would be ideal if it had the media buttons as well.

Too big, I'm looking for something small, ideally less than a foot long.
