In Search of Compact Keyboard That Doesn't Suck?
dlaur asks: "I am a right-handed programmer who doesn't use the numeric keypad. While some may appreciate it, I find that it forces me to place my mouse too far away and I would prefer a more compact keyboard. I depend upon easy access to the navigation keys (arrows/ins/del/home/end/pgup/pgdn) while programming, and I find that, while compact keyboard layouts do eliminate the numeric keypad, they also cram the navigation keys into unnatural places. Does anyone manufacture a 'standard layout' keyboard sans keypad? Tip for entrepreneurs: I'll pay a lot for one."
I use Vi -- and I still need a mouse.
How very nice for you.
Too bad this thread is about keyboards that lack arrow keys - not going mouse-free. Please save your comment so that it can be recycled in a future slashdot posting that is actually on topic.
