Anyone use one of these with their Mini??
Im looking to buy a Mac Mini to use as a HTPC, and this seems like a much cheaper solution to a wireless keyboard and magic trackpad (although I may still buy the latter as well ;) )

Basically I would like the Magic Trackpad, but want an alternative to Apple's wireless keyboard as its way too much IMO.

When I setup my Mini it didn't recognize the Bluetooth keyboard I had. I had to plug in an old USB keyboard, it did however recognize my magic trackpad. Both accessories were Apple hardware.
 
The apple wireless is great because it's so thin. I would check craigslist of kijiji in your area for a second hand keyboard. I got mine for 40 bucks in great shape.
