HP - Wireless Elite v2 Wireless Keyboard - Black

Type easier and more accurately with the height-adjustable HP Elite V2 wireless keyboard. It's compatible with many computers and tablets, and the 2.4 GHz wireless connectivity works from as far away as 30 feet. The keys of the HP Elite V2 wireless keyboard operate quietly, and prevent dust and dirt accumulation.

Works with a Mac - better feel than Apple keyboard

on August 13, 2011

Posted by: menomineenative

from Olympia, WA

I need an extended keyboard (for the number pad) but have a hard time swallowing the $50+ for the Apple branded wired one. So I bought the HP Elite v2 to see how well it would work with my iMac.

I was able to remap the alt and Windows keys with no problem using the built-in Keyboard System Preferences. And the media and sleep keys all work, with the exception of the WWW key and the num lock, neither of which I need. Even the function keys work with iTunes in the background (you just hold down the Fn key and press the appropriate function key for music controls.

The keyboard feels very sturdy, and like the Apple keyboards, has scissor keys. I actually like the feel better than the Apple one.

And with it on sale at Best Buy for $34.95, I could get two of these for the cost of one of Apple'w wireless keyboards.

What's great about it: Great feel, sturdy build, and works with a Mac with minimal setup

What's not so great: Wish I could get the num lock to work on the Mac

I would recommend this to a friend!
