Anyone used the Apple one? Any good? I like my Tactile Pro but it's
already falling apart and suffering from cake-tray syndrome, and I think
it's high time I went wireless.

I did the reverse: I started with a bluetooth Apple keyboard, but have
moved to a Tactile Pro. The reason is sticky keys: the BT keyboard has
a really poor action now. I just picked up the old BT keyboard
actually while writing this message, to check the relative feel, and
it is nowhere near as nice as the Matias in lightness or
responsiveness.

I have only two issues with the Matias: the power key is not
recognised to turn the Mac off or on (or come out of sleep) and there
is no caps lock light (I use the CAPS Warn PrefPane instead). My wife
hates the noise though.
