Customer Review: You never have too many gadgets


This little keyboard is great. I sit on the couch with a big grin on my face because I no longer have to hang out right in front of the tv with a big unwieldy cordless keyboard and mouse. I find the touch pad to be as easy to use as that on any laptop. I love being able to move
the cursor and type with one device. It is very small, but I find it easy to type on. For those used to typing on qwerty keyboards on cell phones, this will feel huge.I am never going to use it to write papers or type long emails, but it's perfect for light browsing and media control.

I have the diNovo mini connected to an HTPC running Windows Media Center. It was simple to set up and I love the built in storage for the bluetooth dongle. It controls Media Center well, although I will still use my Logitech Harmony 880 for remote functions. I needed a keyboard to run iTunes and to use MyMovies. The diNovo fits the bill perfectly. So far, it is exactly what I was looking for, but I did a lot of research prior to purchasing so I knew what to expect.

I've only had it for a couple of days, but I have no negatives so far...


Customer Review: Excellent Addition to my Entertainment PC


I have an "entertainment PC" set up in the basement. It's a DVR/PVR and movie player. It's hooked up to a projector as well. Having this remote keyboard/mouse makes it really easy and fun to control. No more climbing behind the screen to move the mouse! I just plugged the small USB dongle into my computer and within seconds I was moving the mouse around. You only need to install the included software if you want to tweak things like acceleration and cursor speed. The only thing I am disappointed with is the fact that you can't charge it using a USB cable. I recommend this to anyone with an entertainment PC.


Pros:
- Just plug in the dongle and it's up and working. You only need the software to tweak the settings.
- USB plug (dongle) stores in the unit.
- Charge lasts a long time.
- Very cool looking. Lights are nice.
- Easy and fun to use.
- Don't need blue tooth on your PC. This comes with it.


Cons:
- Doesn't Charge through USB or a cradle. Needs the power adapter and cord.
- Switch to change to PS3 mode is hard to get to.

Customer Review: Not worth the money - boardline rip-off


It was very disappointing. My son is a huge fan of Ben Ten and Hyperscan makes a Ben Ten game. The game comes with scanner cards to be scanned in at various points in the game. However, they include only 6 and there are more to be purchased seperately. Although they tell you that the game can be played and completed with the cards included, during the game they tell you to scan in the cards you don't have. My son felt cheated by this.
The game does not have good control so you really need good coordination to make it work smoothly - even adults have had trouble.

Save your money for a PS2!
