Now For Christmas I got this Hama keyboard and have to say that I am really pleasantly surprised: The Hama device has two standard AAA batteries / accumulators and is energy-saving and world problems "refillable", even when there is no power outlet available is. I use my long-lived Eneloop batteries, which are also likely to keep the garbage problem in check.
The unit is robust, light and not as bulky as the Apple Keyboard, but otherwise technically similar: It has a "full" keyboard layout is nearly identical to the Apple Keyboard. There are reasonably large shift keys and despite the opposite Apple Keyboard smaller size can be combined with the device right away quickly and "fail" tap what had bothered me in many solutions, was that you needed a familiarization phase to the specific characteristics of to respond keyboards.
Who as I often have to switch between iMac, iPad and PC with different keyboards, thereby massively disrupted the flow of writing. The Hama keyboard has this disadvantage, it is not intuitive to 100%. Moreover, it is behind increases, as you know from both PC and Mac keyboards, so it is quite suitable for long writing sessions.
The pressure points are clean, connect to the iPad via Bluetooth is done in a few seconds. Special keys help about to change songs or adjust the volume with which the iPad is a real "iMac Mini" now missing only multi-window mode, including mouse support, but it does make Apple)
Overall, I am very satisfied and therefore awarded five stars. I can not say much about the life, since I really only use for a few days, the entire device acts but solid and durable, though a bit "plastic moderately". Haptic However, the keyboard is well above the level of many of the old PC and also plastic-Mac keyboards. By the way, the keyboard can also be used for all other Bluetooth devices, so other pads, PCs and Macs, where it can be used without problems, despite its smaller size.
For future releases of this keyboard I would wish for this very reason, the ability to switch between multiple connected devices per switch about Mac and iPad, as the example in Logitech's K760 keyboard (qid = 1358209082 & sr = 8-3) is possible. Batteries included would also also beautiful, inexpensive AAA batteries look like classic "spurs" and should be changed soon.
