I think the difference is that I use the corded keyboard and you the cordless one.

With the corded keyboard:

dominik@d-karmic:~$ ls -l /dev/input/by-id/
insgesamt 0
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 9 2009-10-12 20:27 usb-Logitech_USB_Multimedia_Keyboard-event-if01 -> ../event6
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 9 2009-10-12 20:27 usb-Logitech_USB_Multimedia_Keyboard-event-kbd -> ../event5

and all the special keys are on ../event6.

I guess the rule doesn't apply to your keyboard for some reason, because it's cordless.

Please upload the result of

sudo udevadm info --export-db > udev-db.txt

then I can try to adapt the rule.
