Fellowes sells a 11.6 in (29.5 cm) long wrist rest under the name of Laptop Palm Support.

I found that this company has a smaller wrist rest and a full sized one.

grifiti.com (apparently, I can't post links)

Never heard of them or ordered from them, but they did respond to my email question about the dimensions

The Notebook Wrist Pad is 12 x 3.5 x 0.75 (length x width x thickness) and the Keyboard Wrist Pad is 17 x 4.0 x 0.75.

so I got one and couldn't be happier, here be pics:

it fits the HHK nicely, wish I had a choc to give you guys a better reference. It feels like an old school wrist rest, but it's slightly fancier than that, it's clearly made of three distinct parts (as you can notice on the second pic) the top cloth, the soft-ish middle and the lower layer which feels less "spongy" than the above. It feels heavier than it looks.

got it on amazon (http://www.amazon.com/Grifiti-Notebook-Wrist-Pad-Black/dp/B004DANDN4/ref=sr_1_6?ie=UTF8&qid=1319072683&sr=8-6) for little over 10 bucks (including shipping) and got it in just a couple of days.

Gels are the only way to go.

My wife bought me one a few years ago and now I am on my second replacement.

I don't know what brand it is, no markings. The other ones eventually split open, or I would still be using them.

And they are WAY heavier than they look, which is good. This one has a tacky rubber rim on the bottom that is almost impossible to slide.
