Although the Microsoft All-In-One Media Keyboard would work okay as a portable keyboard for work purposes, it clearly isn't its intended use. For navigating around a media system or smarthome setup, it will be perfect. At this price it is a really good deal.

It integrates a touchpad with mouse buttons that support gestures (including ones for Windows 8).

Superb keyboard. It's not backlit but doesn't bother me. The trackpad is superb and the whole thing is a pleasure to use. Works great at about 5m from my laptop. Used to control the laptop which sits under my TV.

Very good keyboard and really love the multi function on the trackpad

Responsive. Runs a computer hiding behind my non-smart TV. About 3 metres. Great!
