It's my guess (thogh I have not done this myself) with a full size keyboard
on the laptop one could set jaws to use laptop mode and still be able to use
the numeric keypad for jaws navigation.

Hi Tony,
I beg to differ with you on that score regarding Toshiba laptops not having
a home and end key.
There are a series of four keys on the right of the keyboard, they are the
home, page up, page down and end key respectively.

I'm very satisfied with my Toshiba laptop, though I use the regular extended
keyboard, which probably defeats the purpose; but I just can't get used to
the weird distances of the laptop keyboard.

I guess it depends on which model of Vaio you have. Mine does have the home
