Has anyone tried using Apples new BT keyboard with a Windoze BT machine? Unfortunately I need to use one.

Im trying the same, both the mouse and keyboard work fine with my iBook, but I can only get the mouse to work with the PC at the moment, i'll tell you if I get it up and running.
Any ideas anyone else?

A bit of restarting without a PS/2 keyboard although I needed it to select which parition to boot from, and now both the mouse and keyboard are working with my PC.
I use the D-Link USB bluetooth module that I use for my iBook, and am running winxp pro, for those others of us who still have to use a PC but want to use the peripherals it is possible.
Just the tower to go now, I have the BT keyboard and mouse to compliment my 20 Apple cinema display (if only my iBook could run the display

Why would you WANT to use an Apple mouse on ANY machine?

because a singly button suits most people?

Single button aside, I find the Apple mouse to be very uncomfortable for extended periods of use and the tracking to be weak compared with other optical mice on the market.

Hasn't this discussion been done to death?
The answer however would be that I like the feel of the apple mouse and have a powermate, that I operate with my left hand, for all my scrolling and right clicking needs. Its actually a far better system than a multi button mouse, just a bit more expensive.
