So, didn't know if I should add this here or the HTPC subforum, figured I'd get better feedback here.
I'm half looking for a wireless keyboard to go with my HTPC. Right now I'm using a Logitech K400R which is about 95% of what I need. Integrated touchpad, media keys, small, and light. My main problem with it is that the radio? it's terrible. Pretty much line of site only. Even with the USB receiver on a front case port I have to stand to clear the living room table and wave the keyboard around which makes typing tough.
I was gonna order some USB extenders, try to wrap the receiver up one of my speakers, but before cludging something I thought I'd see what others are using.
The mobo does have onboard BT but antennas are tucked back behind the case and receiver so that might get spotty as well. Backlighting? Rechargeable battery? All that? Nice, but not necessary. I want to keep the built in touchpad though, one with both left and right click.
