Yeah, I was just going to say the Visiontek Candyboard, which is the same product rebranded.

Even that isn't an innovation, since the Rii keyboard/Candyboard comes in a BlueTooth variant already: VisionTek Candyboard Black 69 Normal Keys Bluetoot...

It seems to me the only innovation is dedicated PgUp and PgDn keys, but the candyboard had those functions, you just had to hold the fn key to access them first.
