Hey fedi, so I have this cheap doohickey for using computers away from a desk. It's got a touch pad and keys and is absolutely the right solution for the problem

But it sucks. The keys start bad and if used too much stop registering reliably, the touch pad ain't great, and it keeps losing connection to the dongle despite it being like 8 feet away

Is there some kind of premium version of these that exists? So far I've only ever seen the terrible dirt cheap ones for sale anywhere

(If you don't mind plz boost for reach I am *desperate*)

EDIT: to be clear the handheld/gamepad-like form factor is what makes this work so a more traditionally keyboard shaped device with an additional trackpad isn't really a suitable replacement

@eniko
It's not really the same but I've used a Logitech K400 for this sort of purpose and it works pretty well at a distance.

@BobDendry @eniko oh awesome this is the device I had in mind but forgot everything about it

@LottieVixen @BobDendry @eniko I have that one as well and it works fine. It can be used as a desktop keyboard in a pinch as well. I am doing so at the moment, as a matter of fact
