lighted keyboard? Any suggestions?

sorry.. the NB205 does not have lighted keyboard.. You probably don't need lights as I found the typing is very comfortable and efficient..thus unlikely to get any typos/errors.. that's my own experience..

I use the wireless Logitech K800 illuminated keyboard. I love it! It's full size, low profile and the backlighting is superb. The normal price is $79.99 at Office Max but I got it 1/2 off several months ago. Since then I've not been able to find it anywhere. I wanted to buy another- even at full price it's worth it. I ended up buying another small wireless keyboard from Office Max. It's about half the size fo a regular keyboard. I miss the light up keys. btw, I also have a wireless mouse plugged in for when I'm going to use the Internet on the TV for a long time. I have 2 of these Sony Google TVs and use wireless keyboards and mice with both.

There is a back lighting option that you can enable or disable with a keyboard shortcut. When it's enabled, the lighting is quite bright and effective -- I found it to work really well for using the laptop in the dark.

This is a great keyboard to have. you can use it at night with no lights on because the keyboard is lit up

Sounds like it's not the right keyboard for your laptop. My keys are not lit, but if the only difference is lighted keys vs non, I would try it and just not connect the power plug, if it's just power it might work.

No it is not illuminated. If that's a biggie for you, you can check out the Logitech K800. It has illumination.

No, the keyboard is not lighted. I've never had the need for it. The screen has a variable brightness that illuminates the keyboard well enough with low ambient light.

An IR keyboard would be a terrible idea because IR requires line-of-sight. If something is in the way or your keyboard isn't pointing at the NUC, you won't be able to type. A bluetooth keyboard or a standard wireless keyboard with a USB receiver dongle would be the best bet. I personally use this one and it's amazing. Very comfortable and great range.

The lighted keys on mine are not very bright, but I can see them clearly when the room is dark.

when all else fails google it, there are a few Asus illuminated keyboard styles... but not enough, I believe it should be optional on all keyboards over $500, it's only a $20 configurable upgrade at Toshiba. Sony has some too. Given their recent performance reviews, don't care what Dell

There is a backlit key board available. I'm sure they will be showing up on eBay soon !

you mean light? the keyboard is not illuminated. But it is soft and not heavy.

Yes you can, using the function keys on the top near the screen-brightness keys you can disable the keyboard lights while continuing to use the computer like normal.

Keyboard is backlit and has varying degrees of brightness and the back light can even be turned off if u so desire

No backlit keyboard. I do like how the screen doesn't dim if the laptop is not plugged in. There are alternative ways to lighting a keyboard that span from DIY to purchasable additions.

No lights on the keypad. You'll have to have light or use sense of touch to select buttons in the dark.
