Thanks for the tip.  Mine just arrived.

This keyboard is perfect for having two keyboards on desk at once.

Same size keys as on regular keyboard - just without all the extra stuff you don't really need.

It is what I've been looking for.

The physical size/layout of this keyboard is sold in a bunch of different

variations.  I have two of them in the non-rechargeable version.  The size is

perfect for using two keyboards on a small desk (which is my case).  It also

has a full set of additional multimedia keys (Fn-Fx) that can do pretty much

anything by re-assigning them using AutoHotKey.  And the touch/travel of the

keys is just the right balance of resistance and distance.  Definitely a great

contesting keyboard.

I have used a Microsoft ARC compact wireless keyboard for a number of years.

About a year ago it started randomly  locking up and the only way to clear it

was to disconnect one of one of the batteries and reconnect it. Could never

find a solution.



A few months ago I found a compact wireless KBD on Amazon for $33.99. It's

listed as Keyboard Mouse, Jelly Comb 2.4 G Ultra Thin Rechargeable Wireless

Keyboard and Mouse Combo for Desktop PC Computer.  It is 11" wide by 5 1/2 "

deep and 3/8 " high. It has a metal base and a real quality look and feel. The

tactile function is very responsive and reliable. The kbd has a built in

battery, rechargeable via USB and  nice feeling mouse that uses a pair of AAA

batteries.  I liked the ARC a lot but won't look back after getting the Jelly

Comb.
