Very cool! But I don't think I could function without arrow keys, darn.

That's "LittleFingers" made by DataDesk--they sell these to schools
for K-6, one version has a trackball. Footprint is 12.5" w.

Re: What is the smallest Mac ADB keyboard?

A Google search on "small adb keyboard" revealed this link -

http://www.fentek-ind.com/minikb.htm

with a product called "Happy Hacking Multi Platform/Lite" (great name)
* Multi Platform - PC(PS/2), Sun/SPARC, MAC(ADB)
* Very Small Footprint - 11.6 inches X 4.3 inches
* UNIX/LINUX Friendly Layout
* 60 Full Size Keys
* Some Key Assignments can be changed by mode selector

Cool...  There used to be many specialized ADB keyboards.  I remember one
that looked like a standard keyboard, but everything was proportioned
smaller to about 3/4 size.  I think it was meant as a child's keyboard (or
for adults with small hands).

Also, not ADB (so sorry for being "off-topic"), but I saw this product
demo'ed at MacWorld SF 2002 and I tried it.  Thought it was unique and
clever...  and definitely small.

Sure it's footprint is nearly as small as the Keyboard II (M0487) is 
slightly shorter, no deeper and has recessed ADB sockets to reduce the 
sticky out wires factor. It is also *way* lighter as it has flip down 
feet rather than the Huge plastic wedge at the back.

I'm with Saul on the Mod. M0116 Apple Keyboard! It's the only one I use on 
Macs. I even got a Griffin adapter and use one on my iMac!!! Just love that 
snappy key response and compact size! I have about 20 in 
reserve-supply.that's how great I think they are!  Mikie

Re: What is the smallest Mac ADB keyboard?

[Anna Silliman]

I think the original question was about Apple keyboards,
but I have an ADB DataDesk "Li'l BigBoard" that's 15" x 5.5"
including keypad. I'm very happy with it--has a 'positive click'
with each keystroke, ie. it's noisy.

MacWarehouse used to have these; don't know if they are
still available.
