Number pad

Hello, I am looking for a stand alone number pad. As in not attached to a full keyboard aka:
http://elitekeyboards.com/products.php?sub=filco_keyboards,majestouch_10key&pid=fkb22mb
I searched a bit and this number pad didn't get the glowing reviews that the full keyboard has gotten. Other than that I didn't find almost anything on here about standalone number pads. Wireless would be a plus but is not necessary. I'm just wondering if the FILCO is really worth it for just a numpad. I would be using it to be a little more comfortable playing online poker so I can lean back in my chair and have it on my knee.
This one gets good reviews on amazon but the keys look very shallow:

Any advice?
Thank you
Also what is the best solution to make a wired USB device wireless. I searched a bit and didn't find anything hassle free and cheap, just some $100 wireless router hub things.

you should buy the fastbet 1000 ... coming out in 2011
anyways...that filco has brown switches, there is a scorpius black one that uses ps2 that utilizes blue switches, which you may prefer.

The Goldtouch with Cherry blues looks pretty sweet:
