This one looks really cool, it has VOICE RECOGNITION, and it has back-lighting:

Just an update,..but the battery in my IOGEAR Multimedia Keyboard with Laser Trackball and Scroll Wheel, 2.4GHz Wireless GKM561R (Black) is still going strong after almost 4 months of daily use. That's impressive. It also has a "Low Battery" indicator light. Still loving this keyboard!

I think I've replaced the batteries once since I got my keyboard.. and that's been almost 3+ years!

Last week we had someone stop by with their 5 year old.
The kid picked up the keyboard and started buzzing around XBMC like he was born to it.
Always amazed at how fast the little ones pick this stuff up.

Ultimately,..I think this speaks volumes to the intuitiveness of XBMC and also to the ease of use of this particular keyboard.

In the UK that keyboard on Amazon is equivalent to $83 at today's exchange rate.

I have this KB now too and I love it. To me it is the best one on the market right now and if it only had a backlight it would be perfect.
