    The post confuses gigabytes with gigabytes and should use "Gb/s" rather than "GB/s"
    You confused me. You talking about bits and bytes?

    Not liking any of these.

    What I am looking for should be really simple:
    1- Wireless BT keyboard with the ability to plug in via some form of USB to use as a wired keyboard. Every once in a while you need to be able to plug in a keyboard- not having that capability is just cheaping out.
    2- User replaceable battery- I have Eneloops (Panasonic/ Sanyo previously) like Apple used to sell under their own name that I can easily recharge and replace when they get old.
    3- Backlighting with a proximity sensor.

    Funny how a $30 keyboard gets a cheap BT module and a battery and jumps to $100. I do not mind paying, but the prices of keyboards is kind of ridiculous. Especially considering that these are made in low wage factories.
    I agree. If I could, I'd still buy the wired USB keyboard that came with my 2011 iMac. Mine is 10 years old and still working perfectly. It never needs charging and has auxiliary USB ports on the side that are far more convenient that the ones behind the iMac.

    You might check out Otherworld computing (https://eshop.macsales.com/shop/accessories/keyboards) They have several keyboards that might do a better job of meeting your requirements.
    I was wondering how AI leaves Matias out of this conversation? For those that don’t know, Matias Tactile Pro Keyboard is built from the same keyswitch technology that Apple used in its original Apple Extended Keyboard. You want a mechanical keyboard? You owe it to yourself to check out the TactilePro.

  • Anker's new accessory lineup includes magnetic iPhone cases, iPhone 12 stands

    I bought an Anker charger with a USB-C and USB-A ports a couple years ago and its USB-C started getting flaky after a few months and then finally just died completely.   No more Anker for me.
    Wow, they didn’t respond to your request to replace? Their customer service is generally above average.

    Better question, how many vegans buying this product are against “big oil”?
