Auxiliary keyboard to use with laptop & AutoCAD?

I just posted this to cad_monkies, but I figured I'd put it here, too, in case anyone on my FL has any recs ...

I'm looking for an auxiliary keyboard to use with my laptop; I'm one of those ACAD users who does everything from the keyboard, and I need a keyboard AND the numerical keypad at the end to really produce.
Other than the flexible, roll up ones, can

I use an ergonomic wireless keyboard with my laptop. It might be a bit bigger than what you're looking for but it's fairly easy to deal with. I only use it when it's docked, btw, but you can use it undocked as well. There's a transmitter that plugs into the jack.

I've also seen some new keyboards where they aren't keyboards at all, I think it uses lasers. Here's the link: http://www.palmzone.net/modules.php?name=News&file=print&sid=211

That laser keyboard was featured in an episode of CSI: Miami - it seems so cool, unfortunately its missing the all important number pad.

We have the Indestructible Roll-Up Keyboard (full size)- and actually like it. Not only portable, but can easily be moved if you have limited deskspace and need to write something.

Another option is just to augment your laptop keyboard with a USB Number Keypad.

Hey chica! Any chance you'd be up for some mutual friending?

Hi! I don't know if you know me, but I'm chicagochick over here, and Scout on CC. I was wondering if anyone had already put something together for Pocket....like a care package or anything for her upcoming treatment. You can email me at tschwertley@sbcglobal.net
