Does this have a power key that will power on the Chromebox? Anyone know if the Chromebox can be powered on by any keyboard?

No, I don't think so, I can't find one! ..there is a lock button to lock the screen (same screen as sleep screen).

Hello: This keyboard does not have a power button. It does have a lock button that will return one to the sign on screen where the power option is available from the lower on-screen menu choices. I am not aware of any other Chrome specific keyboard with a power button, but I can see this as being a nice to have option.

We use our switch to use two computers with one printer. Is your keyboard backlit using its own power (e.g. a battery) or does it depend on USB power? I don't know if this switch will let you use USB-powered devices.

The keyboard does not have a power/on off sleep button. It is powerd from the usb connection.

I believe it works with all CTKs, but I don't know for certain. On my keyboard it lists the exact power adapter required at the outlet.

It has WiFi built in as well as an ethernet port for direct internet connection. I have used both without any problems on my Chromebox.

Not sure if it works with the chromebox but it should function. However this remote m/kb is a piece of junk, that track pad instead of roller is garbage.

It must be designed that way. Chromebooks must be set to sleep when you have an inactive keyboard for a certain period of time. I have not found a solution in my search.

Not a problem! The Display Port does need the correct plug/cord. I paid 12 bucks on amazon. Output on the chromebox is 1080 and the sound is digital and outstanding!

"J. Chin says: Any updates? Does this keyboard now allow for the mapping of a "Start" and "PS" button?! Please advise, I'm thinking of getting a keyboard but I don't know which one to buy for the ps3. The $80 doesn't seem to work that well (well, it's imperfect without any way to overcome its flaws)."J.Chin,Is the $80 keyboard that you refer to the Playstation 3 Logitech Cordless Mediaboard, or the newer Playstation 3 Logitech Cordless Mediaboard Pro (with the PS3 keys)?

Yes, this works with Chromebooks and Chromeboxes. It is a great addition to either product for anyone looking to use a regular sized keyboard with Chrome functions built in.

There is a power switch on the keyboard face above the delete key. Consult the instructions. If there isn't a cord for charging, then likely you have been shipped someone else's return. It utilizes a micro USB cord.

I have the google chromebox and it works great. Dont see why it wouldn't work.

no it doesn't - the only way is with the keyboard - the other problem is that it has no power switch since it is powered over the usb ports - when the thing hangs up the only way to recover is to disconnect the usb ports - since two of the ports are hardwired to the cables those ports have to be disconnected at the computer end - except for these inconveniences I would still recommend this switch

Hey Nick,It only comes with a USB cable to plug into your computer. That's all the power it needs, since it's only a midi controller, not your usual keyboard. Hope this helps!Steve.

The only thing I can think of is whether or not your computer is on when you try it. Other than that, I don't believe there is a power switch,(you might look it over as you may have a newer version than the two I have).

I do not have a "power cover" key board. I have a "type" keyboard and it fits perfectly.

The chromebook does have one powered USB outlet that this would work with, but your chromebook will only be able to power one device at a time. In other words, you wouldn't be able to use this at the same time as a USB powered external hard or optical drive. If the Lapdesk is the only peripheral you'll be using, than you shouldn't have any problems. Hope this helps!
