I've been looking for a nice remote/keyboard/mouse/whatever for my media center pc. This seems intriguing.

judging by those pics, the staggering is a little unusual

Especially for the Number 6.


do you type 6 with the right hand?

I have the Logitech Revue, and can answer questions you have about the keyboard, if any. Overall it's actually pretty sweet (the keyboard, not the Revue), and I'd love to use it on a home theater PC.

Yep

i was curious because ordinarily 6 is a little closer to the left index finger :)

When it comes to HTPC keyboards:  No backlight = no sale.

That goes double at the the $100 price point.

This looks pretty good for HTPC use. I'll probably get one when my old computer is slated to become a HTPC.

You should make a listing of motherboards that don't like the model M. My ASUS M3A78-EM works perfectly, for example.

Be careful with the Revue keyboard.  It's designed for Android, so you might be missing some keys like page navigation, F keys, etc.
