For this week's giveaway, we've teamed up with Satechi to offer MacRumors readers a chance to win an Aluminum Slim Wireless Keyboard.
Satechi's keyboard, priced at $74.99, is a simple wire-free keyboard that connects to your Mac or iOS device via Bluetooth.
It's available in silver with white keys or space gray with black keys to match Apple's silver and space gray devices. It's also been designed with diamond cut chamfered edges for a design that rivals Apple's own Bluetooth keyboard.
The Aluminum Slim Wireless Keyboard was created specifically with the Mac in mind with function hot keys, a full numeric keyboard, and a USB-C port for recharging. It connects via Bluetooth 3.0 and has a range of 33 feet.
You can connect up to four devices at once to the keyboard, and switch between them with a button press on one of the four Bluetooth keys. Compatible devices include iMac Pro, iMac, MacBook Air, MacBook, MacBook Pro, iPad Pro, and iPhone.
We have seven of Saetchi's Aluminum Slim Wireless Keyboards to give away. To enter to win, use the Rafflecopter widget below and enter an email address.

[doublepost=1536009395][/doublepost]Just curious, what is the charging time difference with pure-USB vs Apple's use of a Lightning cable? Lightning can charge iPads quickly, why not keyboards?
[doublepost=1536009536][/doublepost]What is the "correct" spot for the Control key? Are you referring to a typical PC keyboard layout that has it on the bottom-left corner?
Apple’s obscene profit margins are a clear testimony to the truth of the above ..... not to mention every time they do a so called software ‘upgrade’ (downgrade more like!)or bring out a new device ..... it breaks compatibility and connection ability to a whole host of third party devices/software over the years .... and even Apple’s own products won’t talk or connect anymore.
How stupid is that for a policy to alienate your customers?! Unbelievable!
The equal sign on an Apple keyboard is clearly an ironical statement.
It used to denote a connection between two sides of an equation.
Computers were adopted and became popular because they were once, in their heyday great connectors and communicators between many devices, and third party producers could afford to spend time and money to keep up with changes they thought were improving things.
Alas, Apple’s leadership and software developers have ‘lost the plot’ ..... and just work to kill connective choice and cooperate with third party developers ..... who have now largely gone bust and the sensible ones given up working with Apple ..... because they know it will end in tears 99% of the time.
=/equal opportunity + profit + caring + sharing isn’t in Apple’s equation anymore, or ethos ..... driven out by hard nosed accountants and the worst type of greedy people Big Business attracts.
Sneak into Tim Cooke’s office ..... you’ll probably find out his keyboard has the =/equal symbol missing!
