Yes, it is like the wired modle without the keypad so really it's more
on par with the laptop keyboard in terms of size. The keys are large
and very easy to type on. Despite it's small size, the keys really are
perfect in size, provide more than sufficient feedback, and are a
pleasure to type on. Oh and it's a pretty quiet keyboard as well.

Scott,
How would you compare the two form factors? Is the wired model
still small
with the addition of the keys making a full keyboard

I got the wired version that does include the numberpad and I really
love this keyboard as well. I did have the opportunity to checkout the
wireless modle and was very impressed despite the fact it had no
number pad. Apple really has done a fantastic job with these new
keyboards.

Hi all,
My new bt keyboard arrived friday and I've been hacking at it on the
windows
side and the mac side. Like the other newer keyboards and
notebooks, we are
minus the virtual numpad but this 11" long wonder is good to type on
with
large keys and well marked f and j keys. I'm thinking I might just
get a
little numpad to go with it. It is light and almost too small to
use on
your lap but it works nicely on a small table or aircraft/train
tray. It'll
drop nicely into my new macbook pro backpack.
The biggest gripe I have against it is that there is know way to
independantly determine its power state. The disk shaped button to
switch
power presses but does not indicate with any non visual feedback
whether you
are powering or unpowering the keyboard.
Also, one other thing to watch out for. when you are putting in the
batteries, the posts should be face down. I had them facing up
figuring it
to be like most devices I've seen but that was opposite their correct
orientation which is powsts down.
I'm happy to answer any questions I can an hope this helps someone.
