Obigatory Jane Austen moment: “I hear such different accounts of you as to puzzle me exceedingly.” That’s pretty much where I was when it came to whether or not the new keyboard would be any use in my lap. The reviews I found online ahead of the time rather differed on that point.
It seems to be working pretty well right now, though not quite as well as it would on the table I have to keep my legs together to keep it stable, and even so it’s moving a bit more than it would on a table. That occasionally causes the IR connection to lose lock on but on the whole it’s quite workable.
I’ll probably be doing my main writing on tables anyway. But for an early morning blog entry (I’m writing this at 09:30 not matter when it will be posted) this works quite well. Now then next thing to test, when I get home tonight, is going to be how well it’ll type when I lie down on my bed with it in front of me. That would be the ideal way to work on stuff late at night, although it’ll probably rather up the risk of falling asleep while writing.
