Apple Releases Wireless Keyboard Update 2.0

Apple today released Wireless Keyboard Update 2.0, weighing in at 10.95 MB. The update description page provides scant information beyond compatibility with "special features" of the new wireless keyboard released alongside new iMacs last month.

Install this software to take advantage of your 2009 aluminum Apple Wireless Keyboard's special features.

The update requires Mac OS X 10.5.8 or later.

What special features are on the new keyboard which are not on the old one?

Clearly they've done something special to make it run on two batteries instead of three :). The old one doesn't do the keyboard backlight adjust keys does it? Only other thing I can think of.

I read here (on MR) that the new keyboards move the BT transmitter to the "center" of the back of the wireless KB, in addition to the 2 batteries (down from 3). Other than that, they appear to be exactly the same.

Ain't one of them new hover keyboards, are they?
