A Wireless Keyboard With A Built-in Trackpad
It’s a keyboard and a trackpad, all in one.
Alright so it might be a little silly considering most of us buy a wireless mouse to get away from laptop touchpads, but we still sort of want one. The USB 2.4 GHz RF Entertainment Slim Wireless Keyboard with Smart TouchPad has 18 hot keys and a built-in high precision Multi-Touch touchpad.
The touchpad appears on the far right, in place of the number pad but don’t fret, you can easily switch between touchpad and numpad. All the usual two/three finger multitouch functions apply. At nearly seventy bucks it’s not the cheapest keyboard around but this thing is perfect for those trying to save desk space or people who’ve invested in desks with a slide-out keyboard shelf or people who like to browse the web from the couch.
Anyone planning on forking out $69 for one of these things? Better yet, do you own one already?

If they actual keyboard is any decent, I'll consider it. I've many times gone to put my hand on the touchpad, realising that my keyboard doesn't have one. The mouse is great for gaming, and for a lot of tasks, but when simply reading the news or browsing, a touchpad is a lot easier.
Finally!
Something for HTPCs, where you can sit back with a proper, whole keyboard.
I've been using a wireless Ceratech Accuratus keyboard with built in trackball for a couple of years now for my HTPC (in the UK). Simple, solid, small(ish) and about £40-50!
Whats new? Anyone heard of Keysonic?
I've had a wireless keyboard with built in touch pad for my HTPC for ages... and it cost about £20.
I think the UK must be ahead of the game, by several years.
