Advantages: Separated keys; very nice to type on, very nice to look at (doh!) Disadvantages: None really
press the caps lock key momentarily for it to register and activate. Reason? Incase you accidentally tap the caps lock key while typing, so more likely you'll only have caps lock key activated when you actually want it activated...which is quite useful. Takes a few times to adjust to pressing momentarily (and when I say momentarily I mean just a spit second).
The keyboard also comes with 2 USB ports on the side for peripherals like a mouse (or the mighty mouse, in some cases) instead of having to plug directly into your Mac/PC. The USB ports won't power high-power peripherals like an iPod Touch (apparently) unless its connected to the iMac (the new iMac's) or a computer with a dedicated USB port...isn't too much of a problem as most cases you just want to plug a flash drive or mouse into the side USB ports - nevertheless its useful ...

--------------------
The keyboard is quite small with hardly any borders, which is great for saving space on your desk. The keys are white and the outer case is transparent plastic. It has a quality look and matches Apple hardware very nicely.

Apple Wired Keyboard
I bought the Apple wired keyboard in the new belfast Apple store around two days ago! I bought the wired and wireless version, I also bought a Apple Wired and Wireless Mighty Mouse!
