I'll take a look at those. I've trained myself to use a number pad and could never get the hang of the embedded numpad because if the offset. I'm also a touch typist so I need things to be where I expect them.
Bezel-wise anything new will beat the model M in terms of size, but generally speaking a full size keyboard is a full size keyboard. If you want a full numpad those two offer compromises for size but beyond that it's just what you can get out of a 104-key.
I didn't think of it that way, thanks for the perspective. I didn't think they would be smaller, but maybe they may be small enough for work and travel.
The model M is a beast, especially when bolt modded, I think it may be considered a weapon in some circumstances.
I'll look at full size models also, knowing that should be a bit smaller.
I thought about going to a 60% and numpad but in the end I think it would be cumbersome. I'm constantly switching between keyboard, numpad and mouse.
