  • Elegant design; good battery life; good keyboard layout; functional tactile feedback.
  • Trackpad is a little wonky; SHIFT and FN keys are not sticky; dust cover seems a little fragile.
  • If you need limited keyboard functionality for your HTPC or PS3, and dont want the bulk of a full size keyboard, the diNovo Mini will fit the bill....

  • This product is exactly what I was looking for. I was getting so sick of trying to type of a media center remote. Now that I have the DiNovo Mini I actually use my entertainment center PC. I would highly recommend this to anyone with a PC connected...

  • I have been using the diNovo Mini for about two weeks with my makeshift HTPC setup, and I must confess, I am in love with this product! Logitech must have put some serious time and thought into the diNovo Mini, and it certainly shows. Software installa...

  • Stylish design; easy to set up and configure; media mode function
  • Can be awkward to operate at speed; clickpad is too small
  • There’s no doubt the Dinovo Mini has its uses, but it’s too awkward to operate in terms of text entry to thoroughly recommend

  • Price
  • This keyboard really has suprised me, at the first glance it really looked to small but I have now changed my mind. The layout they have chosen for the keyboard works very well, they have designed the mouse functions so they are on the sides while the ...

  • The diNovo Mini is pretty expensive at around $150. The thing to remember is that this is a special input device that matches with a media center. Media centers cost a pretty penny themselves and adding this may not be a drop in the bucket, but it is w...

  • Intuitive layout, Extremely functional, Perfect size and shape
  • Touchpad is a bit difficult to use with your thumb, Can’t type very fast on it
  • Leave it to Logitech to devise a keyboard none of us knew we wanted, but now can’t live without it. We’ve never liked having a big keyboard in our living room for our HTPC, and the diNovo Mini is very close to the perfect solution to this...

  • Long battery life; tactile buttons; easy configuration; future-proof, backlit buttons.
  • Easy to dent and scratch cover; cheap back cover and battery holster; lack of Mac and Xbox 360 support; may be pricey for some at $150.
  • It might be too early for some, but the diNovo Mini is an excellent remote for your PC driven media center.
