Small Keyboard

Hello first post here. I am looking for a cheap, under 30 euro keyboard that looks like this

So far I know of this noppo and Happy Hacking. But are way out my price range. I guess you could say I would be happy using a cheap replica of those...
I want a keyboard that dosen't have arrow keys zone or the numpad zone.

The HHKB Lite is non-mechanical and should be close to that size and maybe that price if you can find it used.

I didn't say they were, and he didn't ask for mech.  'looks like'  is satisfied by the stuff in that link, that I wouldn't touch one with a 10' pole wasn't part of the request.

I should of told before, I don't want mac like 2d keyboards. I want the buttons to be somewhat cubical ...
I don't care if it's mech or not.
This pretty much sums what I want. A cheap copy of this or something similar:

Don't care if buttons are printed or not.

alaricljs advice is pretty nice for that price. However I dislike the fact that the keyboard is like a laptop keyboard. I want the keys to be more like this http://www.keyboardco.com/keyboard_images/beige_chicony_keyboard_large.jpg [-]

Not going to find it for the price you're willing to pay.  I can't think of a single mini with full-travel keys that's in that price range.
