I've had a number of blue tooth key boards over the past seven or eight years and I've always thought the current one was the best ever-- and I think I was right.  My first one, I was just thankful that it paired (most of the time) and and functioned.  The next one paired easily which I thought was a big improvement.  I could go through every one of them and charting the improvement of bluetooth keyboards over the years, but now I expect a certain degree of technological sophistication and ease of use. Now I want a little more.This Belkin keyboard is also a case.  It's extraordinarily light weight but seems sturdy.  I''m not going to put my HD Fire in it and start hurdling it at a brick wall, but I can carry it in my bag with ease of conscious.  I wear a large sized glove but I don't have any trouble with hitting the keys.  But as I don't use my Kindle as a replacement for my laptop, the fact they feel a bit too close together doesn't bother me for typing emails or web posts or taking notes at a conference.The 7 Inch Kindle Fire HD fits in it just fine and it has a magnetic closure that turns it into a neat lightweight package for going long distances or just carrying around town.  I also discovered that it paired and worked just fine with my 8.9" Kindle Fire HD although I needed another stand to hold the Fire up for viewing.So I recommend this keyboard without serious reservations and I can say that it is the best one I've had yet.
