Apple Wireless Keyboard...can it be done?

Thread Starter 
Has anybody with a non-Apple found a way to use this keyboard with their notebooks? Although it's bluetooth, it doesn't want to pair with non-Apples. I travel a lot and of all the keyboards I've seen, for the size and quality, this is the one, esp. being bluetooth and all. But, all that doesn't count for D***if it doesn't work. Any help out there?

I just junked an apple bluetooth keyboard a few days ago. Next time one passes through my office, I'll check to see if I can get it working with my Pc laptop.

These are the system requirements from the apple website:

There is no mention of PC compatibility (errrr... windows pc), so the software most likely only works with macs. Looks like you're SOL.

Well, I got the broken one out of the trash (some keys worked, others didn't) and tried to connect. The BT adapter detected it, but I couldn't pair it...
