Canon's answer to your missing tenkey.

Aaaaand I just posted this in keyboards, because I'm a dumbass today, apparently.

This looks like it has potential.

It is definitely an interesting concept and I guess it kind of makes sense; but it seems like having a full-size keyboard would be a less intrusive way to implement the extra keys into your work space than sticking them all over the top of your mouse lol

That doesn't look very comfortable. I'd rather use a Razer Naga.

Blah.  My Alpsulator is better.  Mechanical keys AND it connects to a PC with USB.  Details Sig>Reviews>Keypads>Alpsulator.

Ripster, you really ought to make a wiki listing your wikis/reviews/etc, and have your sig point to that, instead of pointing to post #47 of some random thread about a G80-3000 blue keyboard.

I missed that part, interesting...

Can you switch on the fly like on the Focus keyboards or it switches to numpad function when USB is connected ?

I have a new policy.  Give the link once.  If you have questions I've subscribed to links in my sig  and can pick it up there.

Too much Geekhack traffic for me to monitor everything.

Unless I feel like driving home a point.

A yes or no wasn't so hard to write, surely better than 3 rows of unfriendly message.

Specially considering that your link points to a tread and not to a true review.

I'm getting one... mechanical numpad + calculator sounds sweet. Only problem is they are very glossy. Might try to de-gloss it with a Mr Clean Magic Eraser, anyone tried this?
