Are you trying to use it as a primary keyboard? It's not designed for that and really is totally unsuitable.
Sometimes - yes - if it's the keyboard you've got in front of you, that tends to be the one you use. I'm using it right now - browse the web etc no problems, but I'm not going to switch to a different keyboard because I decided to type a reply in this thread.
I had a full-sized logitech wireless keyboard which was much better, but not resistant to being eaten by a visiting dog. I use the MK400 with the mouse from that combo - which works just fine with the "unifying" receiver.
Wireless keyboards used for "HTPC" type duty do tend to get a bit of a hard time, dropped, trodden on, spilled on etc. I don't expect this one to last - although they seem to be quite well made for the price. When it dies, I'll replace it with another full-sized keyboard sans-touchpad.
We've had ours for a few years doing HTPC duty. (I'm also currently typing on it). Has fallen off the couch countless times, been trod on by the kids a few times and still going strong. I'd happily replace it with the same model if it did break.
