Wow, what a great keyboard!Apart from those criticisms, we love the keyboard.
It uses Logitech's excellent Harmony universal remote technology and online code database, so it should be capable of controlling just about anything in your entertainment center. It's thin, lightweight, and offers exactly the right amount of tactile feedback. It has dedicated buttons to power on and off the Revue, your A/V receiver, and your TV; to switch the set-top box between live TV, the program guide, and the DVR; to adjust or mute the volume; and to perform searches. It's also outfitted with a very responsive trackpad for cursor control, a D-pad for scrolling web pages and navigating the menus on DVR, a back button, and transport buttons (play, record, pause, skip forward, and skip back). Finally, it's the perfect size for typing on your lap, and it easily balances on the armrest of your sofa or recliner when you're not using it.
