That one does not require batteries for this keyboard, is another invaluable plus. Although it takes when a key press first second until the Mac responds, and sometimes (rarely) I have the keyboard and off briefly and then on again to make it work, but I can live fine.
One must however be clear that some buttons missing in comparison with a large keypad, as Page Up / Down, Home / End, remove (instead fn-backspace key) and the numeric keypad. Also missing the two buttons for forward and backward jumping and coils (>), but Alt-Command-arrow-right and -left do the same.
