At the begining of this month Apple inc. releases new iMac’s and Keyboards, new iLife 08 and iWork 08. This week I have aquired one of those keyboards. I don’t get the wireless model because it hasn’t numeric keyboard and I am not a fan of wireless devices. I hate batteries, they finish when more you need them. I think the wire model has a perfect design, but usb connectors can’t manage pendrives I think this is negative point, but not tribial. Another thing I don’t like is the software keyboard. Apple releases a new update, but it doesn’t work, because fourth tab remains gray when you click on it and I can’t configure it.
But I supose Apple will solve this issue soon in the next Tiger update 10.4.11.
The design of this keyboard is like the MacBook, there are spaces between buttons I think it’s a cleaner design.
I think your problems with the greyed Keyboard Shortcuts tab comes from using the Spanish language internationalization (works for me in English).
I remember reading somewhere (maybe Engadget, but I can’t find it right now), that this is indeed what caused the tab being greyed (having the OS in another language but English), and that it could be solved easily somehow. Not being very helpful, am I?

Yeah!!! I’ve changed language it works!
Thanks!
But, it must work with spanish too soon.
