Microsoft has launched a new wireless keyboard - Microsoft All-in-One Media Keyboard
. It is a full size keyboard with dedicated volume/mute keys
, 3 programmable keys and various Windows 8 shortcuts . It is
a spill-resistant keyboard . The major addition to this keyboard is an
in-built touchpad and dedicated click buttons . So say good bye to wires
and mouse . Unlike other wireless keyboard which uses Bluetooth
wireless technology , this keyboard uses wireless nano receiver which
can be plugged in to the USB port of the media device
(laptop/tablet/PC/TV/…) . The keyboard is powered by 2 AAA batteries and
has a slot to keep the receiver when not in use . There is no USB
charging option which looks like a big drawback . You will need a
dedicated USB port for the keyboard and also not all the devices has
full size USB ports , like in tablets .
