Hi all,

I am about to plug my BeoMedia 1 to my brand new BV8-40.

Searching the internet I do not find many mini keyboards/mouse to connect wirelessly to a remote PC (i.e. BeoMedia 1)...

At this time I have found 2 models that seem pretty good:

KeySonic Wireless Intuition XS - ACK-540 Alu + RF

and Logitech diNovo Mini:

Could you tell me what product you own ?

Thanks !

Eammanuel;

I started years ago with a Microsoft Bluetooth combo, but have used and enjoy a Logitech Di Novo Edge for two years + now.

I find the mouse built into the keyboard tiresome to use after an hour, so I added the Logitech mini-Q124 mouse. That requires 1 BT key and 1 Optical key, or 2 USB slots.

Both look like B&O products and work very good. You can control the volume of your B&O product choice while working, via the touch scale on the right side of the keyboard.

Thanks for you experience Swiss_2.

I have considered the Di Novo Edge option but the keyboard is too big. I would like to have a little thing in my hands, even if it does not have all the buttons a complete PC keyboard has:

I think I will go for the diNovo Mini, unless I find a good competitor to it (and less expensive).

Very good. Please post your experience and final preference when you can for the other members.

Sure I will do

My BM1 is plugged in to my BV8 since this morning. As I need first to set up the BM1 correctly, and then see how I can exploit it, I need a few weeks before I know the keyboard is a good investment.

I have used Amitech, not good.

I have used diNovo edge, to big

I USE diNovo mini, Perfect

Thanks for your feedback !

I have my diNovo Mini since 2 days.

It is very easy to plug, no configuration needed (just press "Connect" buttons on the mini-bluetooth usb receiver and on the keyboard to establish the connection). My Beomedia 1 is locked up inside a furniture and the bluetooth communication is OK through the wood panels. Do not expect mouse reactivity like a standard wired mouse, the trackpad must be used slowly to reach the desired area on the screen at the first try.

The keyboard is actually very small, and only the thumbs must be used for best efficiency. All the essential system keys and caracters are present (French version for me so I have accents like "é", "à" etc).  The trackpad is not very accurate because the thumb is quite big on it: I have to gently scuff its surface.

To sum up this keyboard/mouse is well enginered and very easy to use, I am happy with it
