Does this keyboard support 2 laptops? Does anyone know if that can be done with the Microsoft Bluetooth Mobile Keyboard 6000?

You can only pair this keyboard to one device at a time. If you want to switch it between computers/devices, you have to go through the pairing process each time you switch.

Yes, if your laptop has a USB port, that is what this keyboard plugs into to work. If you only have one USB port, that would be a problem for you. Tom D

If you need to use on multiple PC's I would suggest one of the Bluetooth models that you can buy generic Bluetooth dongles for about 10 bucks to use wherever. This is a good keyboard, but I wish I would have gotten a Bluetooth version just because its got a few more uses (tablet, PC, smartphone).

Bluetooth works. So does a micro USB to USB on the go converter with a Microsoft 800 series wireless mouse and keyboard. I find that to be the best because its full size and you get the keyboard and mouse running off one USB.

I have two computers on my desk (Windows and Linux). And I have two sets of the MS 5000 keyboard and mouse, side by side, one connected to each computer, and have seen no interference whatsoever. I dislike the recessed function keys, but after using for years, I'm getting used to them.

Hi Eimart, it only utilizes one (1) USB port because with the same USB dongle both keyboard and mouse are controlled. Regards...

Hello, You can connect 2nd Display. Just go to Asus website and see details. You can use your USB Keyboard. Best regards, A.Umansky

This adapter handles multiple devices, up to seven. When you say multiple keyboards, I'm presuming you mean different keyboards for different computers. Either way, to clarify, you need one adapter for each computer, which will then allow the computer to which it is connected handle up to seven devices. This device has worked perfectly for me. I've connected it to Bluetooth speakers, keyboards, headphones, and more.

Hi Gloria, I don't have any "top-of-the-line" keyboard, however, when I tried to get hook up my keyboard to it and run the mixer to the laptop I didn't hear a thing through the system or the main mix/phones on the mixer. I'm guessing you may need a Direct Input (DI) Box to pass the keyboard through first before routing to the mixer. Other than that, yes you should be able to do what you thinking of doing.Hope this helps. :)

The keyboard will be used for (primarily) a tablet and a media center. Since the media center is now only controlled by a remote, reentering the key is not an option (don't want to hook up a mouse every time to initiate the pairing ceremony). Meaning, I want to be 100% sure that the bluetooth keyboard will remember to which devices it is paired with.

Yes you can use other keyboards. I suggest you go to a Microsoft store if there is one nearby and check out the keyboards they have. Any keyboard that has USB or Bluetooth connectivity should work. However, as Mari points out, there are some advantages to using the ASUS keyboard, namely screen protection and extra battery life

I didn't get a blue tooth device with mine. I am currently on my second keyboard and I love using it as oppose to keyboard with the laptop.

The key board is USB, not wireless, and I have used it with Windows 7 and 8. I did not notice any incompatibility using Windows 8 with the keyboard.

If you are meaning using the same keyboard for two ipads, I don't see why not. I have never tried that, but don't see any issues as they both work off the bluetooth anyway. After syncing, should be okay as both units are identical
