With the keyboard a HTPC is served, which is usually controlled with a Logitech Harmony remote. Since the XBMC (formerly Media Center) Surface must be left occasionally or just a dialog box will be clicked away, it takes just still a keyboard. I have in recent years tried quite a number of so-called HTPC keyboards. With touchpad, trackball, joystick, infrared and radio-based.
Compared with their predecessors on the domestic media center which Lenovo does a good job:
Small, discreet and easy to install it leaves little to be desired. The mouse sensor responds sufficiently sensitive and precise, the keys have a tactile feedback. Illumination turns because I join a Vorrezensenten on to quickly back out. A time-controlled standby mode would be desirable as well as a switch on the lighting when you press any key.
All in all: a well thought out product at a fair (30 EUR) Price.
