I had a suggestion that i posted a couple of hours ago with some links, but it's not showing.
Go to logitech.com and do a search for the "dinovo mini" keyboard, it's awesome.

DiNovo Mini does NOT work at BIOS, since it is Bluetooth based.
other than that, it is a great mini keyboard. I love mine.

Yeah, you are right. I played around with it, and found that if you open the keyboard beforehand, to make sure it is on, you can get into the BIOS with the DEL key. I guess basic functionality of the bluetooth stack is enabled as soon as you turn on the computer.

OK so I can get in the bios by pressing FN+ESC at post
cant seem to find a button (Up And Down key) to cycle through the bios options, other than that this is almost a perfect keyboard for a car pc (esp the touch pad that doubles up as a d pad)
