That's one strange keyboard.
#1 it's overpriced (in Australian currency from someone in hong kong).
#2 it was made fairly recent, since it has an XP logo button.
#3 it's probably a poor quality rubber dome.
#4 it's only 83 keys; with oddly shaped keys at that.

Well hurry! Someone better buy it for 14 aussie bucks. Any takers?

Could potentially have use with...I dunno, phone/PDA, maybe home entertainment PC?

Looks miserable otherwise. Calculator-style keys if I'm understanding what I see correctly.

That's the bluetooth board Chimera15 used for his wireless minihack 2 keyboard [1]. I was just looking for one :D

That's funny. Well he probably used it because it was a POS. Point of Sale! No, a piece of shhhhh.

Though, the dust bunnies amused me (then he added "giggle", wow, just wow). No, not world of warcraft.

Too many homophones.
