    The Microsoft 21Y Compact keyboard is ideal in my case, for use as I have to go between my current Desktop and the Surface that I use this for.

    There are many keyboards on the market. I mainly bought this one because I am used to the Surface keyboard layout, and this is exactly identical to that. Otherwise, this is still a great keyboard. It's fairly quiet, easy setup since it is recognized by windows, and easy to use without looking down all the time. Holds connection well, haven't experienced any connection drops. Not bad for light gaming, great for essay writing at 3am, and looks great on any desk.

    I bought this on a whim when it was on an Open Box sale. It was an impulse buy, but I really like having this option. I was thinking I'll use it with my Amazon Kindle Fire 8 tablet, but haven't tried it yet. But I used it on my own desktop in place of my wireless much bigger keyboard for a little while. I like it and one day will connect with my Kindle by Bluetooth because it can pair with 6 devices.
