It appears a new backlit Apple Wireless Keyboard is coming, as the company’s online Czech store has leaked the update, as first spotted by Letem svetem.
As you can see in the image below, the new keyboard has some changes we’ve highlighted in red. The F5 and F6 keys show the backlit keyboard controls, whereas before these keys were just the function keys. Also note the Eject button in the top right is now a power icon. If you think the return key has shrunk, this appears to be a regional thing.
Here is the Canadian Apple Wireless Keyboard below for comparison:
Apple’s Canadian online store isn’t showing the new keyboard yet. The current version retails for $89 CAD.
While the Apple Wireless Keyboard looks great, personally I don’t like it for long term use as it hurts my hands. The Das Keyboard for Mac is my weapon of choice when I’m talking to you folks.
