Brando Mini HTPC Keyboard is Big on Touchpad

November 24th, 2009

A great stocking stuffer for the guy or gal who has everything, USB Wireless Handheld Keyboard and Touchpad. This wireless touchpad with mini keyboard makes a perfect addition to any HTPC setup. Available in black or white colors from a distance, these resemble a large Blackberry or a small Kindle. The keyboard and basic size and shape are instantly familiar as you navigate around any remote PC. It's also perfect for presentations where you actually need to interact with the desktop as opposed to just click "Next" on a slideshow. Additionally, the keyboard is backlit to enable low-light and no-light operations, another big plus for darkened home theatre.

The included USB transmitter should provide at least a 30 foot range for control. The signal is transmitted over 2.4GHz RF band which should make for some long battery life and reliable performance. The internal rechargeable battery can be recharged via mini-USB cable. It has a physical on/off switch to really maximize battery life. A bargain at $61, this could easily be picked up for several people on your Christmas list.
