I'll pay shipping. I love the recent keyboards. Now, Robert, don't be greedy. I want _one_ of them. Okay, David, how much for each? An estimate of shipping would be helpful, too. And just to clarify, this is the keyboard without the keypad, right? This is a serious offer.

BTW, thanks for the healed/heeled correction in another thread. I try to run my spellchecker, but unfortunately Apple doesn't plan to add the read-my-mind homonym sorter till Mac OS XX.

I find the thin wireless keyboards an utter delight, and far more use than clunky bulky keyboards used on most computers. -- via iPad

Rocketfish ? or something like that. It looks a bit like an Apple keyboard, with the number pad on the right and the special keys between. One of the keys has both a Windows and Apple logo on it. I suspect that means it's the command key on Mac and the menu key on windows. -- Wes Groleau Life-Changes (maybe even in blogging) http://Ideas.Lang-Learn.us/russell?itemid=1541 |
