I’m facing this too.
At this stage I’m considering the Apple Magic Keyboard, the Logitech K811 (has backlighting which I like), and maybe the Firco Magestouch Minila Air

>Super compact. A handful of keys have multiple functions. Took a while to get used to it, but I type faster on this thing than traditional keyboards now.

Now I remember stumbling upon that one. Everything looked perfect, apart from those function keys. They seem to be positioned in a way that begs for missing the spacebar.
Will look into Matias, cheers.

I use this one which is 60% layout, it’s wireless (uses Bluetooth 3.0) and via dip switches you can enable Mac mode (changes Win key to Command and Alt keys to Option)
I ordered mine with Cherry MX browns and love them. I don’t miss any of the absent keys, the two Fn keys let me reach any of the other layers effortlessly and another dip switch mode let’s you turn any or both of the FN keys to space if you feel the space bar is too small.
Go see some videos.

Contrary to what everyone is saying, I think a Surface 3 might be a good companion to your desktop. Consuming web content is much nicer on a large touch screen in my opinion and Netflix and Spotify will run fine. I haven’t used Skype on mine, but Hangouts ate through my battery and got my SP3 really worked up. I haven’t done anything too intense with Photoshop, but it has worked well enough for minor photo editing.
Also, remember the SP3 only has one USB port and the port is very low power (don’t try to charge a phone through it). I have the type cover and use it regularly (the trackpad is really bad if you’re used to MacBooks), but I also have a BT Mechanical Keyboard that I’d probably recommend for portability.

Your options are pretty limited, there are very few BT boards.
Filco Minila Air – $164 @ Amazon
There’s also the Varmilo VB660M but I don’t know where you can reliably get one.

Filco Minila Air is the easiest to catch — Amazon. It’s small and very well built, although the layout is a little quirky.
There is also Varmilo VB660M, but it’s much harder to find it.
If you’re into tinkering, you can buy a Poker or KBP V60 and add Bluetooth to it yourself – thread 1 thread 2.

Yes, just not actually purchased anything yet.
Miracast looks promising for whole-UI casting, last Roku supports it as well as some Blue-Ray players. The best “dedicated” receivers in order seem to be
the MS Wireless Display Adapter
Actiontec ScreenBeam Pro, ScreenBeam Mini 2
Lots of cheaper ones available, but in this category YGWYPF seems to apply
Here’s some raw notes on keyboards:
bluetooth keyboards
Ultimate mechanicals
Filco Majestouch Convertible 2
Bluetooth 3.0
full-sized layout
Cherry MX blue, brown, black, and red switches.
Brown (damped)
switch between USB and one of four Bluetooth sources with Fn+number key shorcuts
DIP switches let you disable the Windows key and swap the Ctrl and Caps Lock keys, among other things
