You posted an >opinion< not an >explanation<; huge difference. Apple's own Bluetooth Keyboard is a top seller at any retailer where it's carried BTW (LOL)All I did was posit a reasonable explanation as to why they were discontinued.

Again, you've >established< nothing, what you done is expressed an >opinion< -- big difference....I've established you're a bigger dick them me...
While all you said is accurate, I wanted to clarify, the wireless adapter DOES work just fine with the Power Cover... the only limitation is obviously the Power Cover doesn't charge the Surface remotelyWell, I have one. And it is very comfortable to put a few feet between my keyboard and a kicked back SP2.
I bought mine from bestbuy.com .
I suggest that it would still be good to get one. Should be stock hanging around, probably at a good price.
As to why it is being discontinued, I would guess:
- Not worth competing against myriad Bluetooth Windows keyboards
- Not compatible with the Power Cover. The Power Cover can't do its reserve power job remotely.
- Not able to 'fold up' and carry with the Surface. Even keyboards do. Does not match the concept of portability. Mice don't either, by the way.
I think Microsoft is making the wrong call on this one, though. They should at least license the product out to be manufactured / offered by a 3rd party.
Thanks for the heads-up, the stores have stopped stocking them but BestBuy.com has them, I just ordered one (in addition to the one I purchased a couple months ago). Such an innovative and useful gizmo, once you've had one it's not something to be without. I don't use it 100% of the time, but when I do use it I'm very glad I have it. What would be even better would be having Bluetooth built into the Surface Type & Touch Covers....they appear to still be available at Best Buy.com...
