Does anyone know why the numeric keypad and other ancillary buttons are
missing from the Apple wireless keyboard ?
It's smaller, and therefore useful to people who see wireless as
portable. It's balanced, and therefore useful to people who are typing
on their lap, or anyone at a desk who is tired of that extra 50% of the
keyboard shoving the mouse so far to the right.
I am sure if it was identical to the wired keyboard (apart from being
wireless of course), more people would probably consider buying one, I know
I would.
Buy a Bluetooth keypad if you want a Bluetooth keypad.
