Seen if you can find one of the older SE keyboards...I have one, it is quite small and would do well as a portable KB. Not a foldup by any means, and no numeric keypad, but about 2/3's the size of a Apple Design KB. Andrew -- Duo/2400 List, The friendliest place on the Net! A listserv

How small does it have to be? Among new ADB keyboards, I think the smallest is the DataDesk Lil'Big Board , which is 15x5.5 in. It's a bit psychedelic-looking. They make another model (TrackBoard?) with the same footprint which has a built-in trackball and detachable n
