Are these keyboards Macintosh compatible?
I mean, USB is USB, but I wasn't sure if the radio interface would make it incompatible.

anyone know?

USB may be USB, but the keyboard will still need drivers. I'm *guessing* here, but I bet the standard keys *may* work, but none of the special web and media buttons.

I just bought an RF Logitech wheel mouse (Cordless mouse) over my lunch hour and they have drivers for this. If Logitech has drivers for the mac and their RF keyboards, then I'd say it would work for sure.

Suggestion... go into your local megacomputer store and ask them to take one over to the mac section and plug it in. Tell them they will have a sale if it works. Good luck! Vive la Macintosh!

Damn right! Good suggestion, I will definitely try that approach. I'll make another post regarding my findings.

Well, the keyboard is set up for Windows. There is no command button so I don't know if it will work.
