Those two usb ports are good for newer memory sticks that are smaller than the older ones, or some mp3 players. I had only one stick that didn’t fit down there :)
the only other problem with those two usb ports might be the power. Not all usb gadgets that I own can draw enough power from them in order to work. But hell, I have an USB hub with its own charger for such stuff :)
I had a discussion with my friend today about that, he didn’t like the position of those ports and he immediately concluded that the keyboard sucks :D
But I think that it’s just splitting hairs, one “error in design” (although it’s not) – and the keyboard isn’t good. No matter how much pros does it have, one con can take it down :D
And do I need to say that he used it only to check up on his Facebook and Twitter profile? :)
But well, that’s just everyday example of people hating Apple.

I don’t think that keyboard sucks, I just commented that the placement of USB ports, which I would use for devices like USB stick, generally for those I frequently need to use and wear with myself all the time, maybe is not quite practical. :) Otherwise the keyboard is great, except that is incomplete without a Mac by her side of course. :D

It’s too bad those ports are not high-powered, else the second one would be great for the dock. And I wish Logitech had shorter mouse cable, this way there’s too much black cable around that piece of art :P

Other than this the best keyboard I used so far

That’s why I’m gonna get me a wireless mouse, with dongle so small that fits under the Keyboard :)
