Thanks for the recommendation. I remember us talking about the Logitech keyboard before, and I'm very tempted to get it. I was mostly trying to steer somebody else away from the Apple keyboard, especially if they were going to carry it around with them, for the reasons that both of us mentioned. That was the only thing I didn't like about the Apple keyboard, and I wanted to make sure that they knew what they were getting into before they went out and bought it. It's a great keyboard apart from that darn button.
