Typing this from 10 feet away on my 37" telly using the Keysonic ACK-540RF

 

Works quite nicely and slightly easier than the Microsoft Wireless Desktop I had been using ... bought from ebuyer in UK -

Now considering looking for the bluetooth equivalent [model 540BT] and a bluetooth usb dongle to see if reception can be improved to 200m ...

 

Maybe the Conceptronic CBT200U2 ?

[EDIT] I have since updated to the D-Link DBT-120 USB dongle (which I had spare lying around in the loft as it was rubbish for use on Windows) working with the new Apple Bluetooth Keyboard and a Microsoft 3000 Bluetooth Mouse which work absolutely brilliantly from up to 3 metres / 20 feet away and even better than the old Keysonic setup. I also got the benefit of my Nokia N91 bluetooth phone syncing all my todo list and contacts with iCal and address book - wow!!!

I have an old Keysonic 340RF, but I can't get this to work. How did you get your 540 working? OSX detects there is a new keyboard plugged in and comes up with the "Identify your keyboard wizard", but it's not picking up any key presses. The dongle and the keyboard are sync'd afaik as the link light is on the keyboard. The mouse isn't doing anything either.
