$130 Bluetooth KB now worth $80-90 - Black - 06-28-2009

Turns out it came with something called "instructions."
I'm not used to it yet (2-finger scrolling withdrawal is a serious affliction) but it appears you tap the little bumps at 12:00 and 3:00 and then do a clockwise/counterclockwise motion to scroll.
I'm ready to upgrade my recommendation to "yes, buy this, if money is no object and you're able to accept that there's no other product out there like it that includes a built-in mousing option."

It's on the MR deals page for $99 at MacMall http://www.macresource.com/category/mr/peripherals_accessories/input_devices/

Um . . . I don't suppose Amazon has any sort of price-match guarantee?
I'd feel a bit better if someone told me Mac Mall's shipping costs $35.
Anyways, there's a lot that's good about this KB. The keys and action are great. Size and shape is great. Still showing 100%/30 days charge left 2 days after charging. The trackdisc has very good action and just the right sensitivity. The only time I ever use a numberpad is when tallying up a bank deposit, which I only do from my desktop, so I don't miss it.
At $99 I'd recommend it.

That's Fed-X overnight - UPS ground is about $9 for my zip and $16 for 2 Day Fed-X
The charging specs on that board are impressive - 5 minutes for a days worth of use and 2 hr for 30 days.

I have used a couple of these now for two years (Windows-side though) and they are great, great keyboards. I paid the premium price when they were new and came out and they are still worth it.
