In my quest to replace a keyboard (referenced in an earlier thread), I do believe I've found a winner.
As you know, keyboards are very personal things and what worked for me may well not work for you, but i thought it was worth sharing. I tried out and just today returned two from Amazon. However, during my searching, I found one that had some of the things I liked about one of those I returned (backlight, bluetooth), yet this one was designed with a Mac in mind, so I figured I'd give it a shot. It has actual Cmd keys and it feels pretty solid. Best of all, it cost a whopping $12.99! It's made by the same company (Jelly Comb) that makes the cordless mouse someone posted here a while back, which I've come to really like a lot. It's good enough that I'm going to buy another just to have as a spare. Link to the item (sorry, it's from a Walmart Marketplace seller) has more pics and info, https://www.walmart.com/ip/Backlit-Bluet.../792597480, and I've included a picture here of mine with the backlight on its highest setting just to give you an idea.
Oh yeah, you'll notice my trailer-trash modification of my old Matias with the faded keys. Figured I'd include that for a laugh.
So the quest for me is over for the immediate future. Here's hoping I'll continue to like this thing. If not, I can always go back to my newly modified Matias.
