Bluetooth Dirt Magnet KB-keys don't work anymore-broken forever?

iMac G5 10.5.7, suddenly, with fresh strong batteries the bluetooth white KB becomes conected in the BlueTooth preferences, but in the battery level meter, nothing shows up(odd) and no keystrokes are recognized. Tried adding device and pairing again, but alas, no keystrokes, no pairing. Ready for the trash heap? It's exactly 4 years old. No additional KB available to plug in to this computer, so I cannot use it at all unless I go buy a new KB, which is really lame, and I doubt I'll ever go with or persuade anyone to go wireless unless you are ready to deal with batteries all the time or absolutely need to be far and free from your computer. On that note, the new wired Apple KB is pretty nice compared to this huge heavy plastic trap for forensic evidence.


If you look around the table and can't tell who the sucker is, it's you.
