Hi Gordon and David,

John was recommending the Macally IKEY5V2 USB keyboard, which is sold at the 
macsales address he gave, but which is also available worldwide.  If you go to 
the Macally Europe web site I linked in my earlier post, you can look up both 
the product and local dealers for your area.

Here's the product page for the keyboard at the Macally Europe web site:
http://www.macally-europe.com/productpage.php?product=1011

If you use the "Where to buy?" link on that page, you can find stores in your 
area.  For example, for the UK, here is the page of local Macally dealers:
http://www.macally-europe.com/fwheretobuy.php?country=25

HTH.  Cheers,

Esther
