[B]It's tempting for $30, but I saw one at Radio Shack and it looks very small (ie hard to type on).

BTW, the sale ends 2/22/03. [/B][/QUOTE]

I purchased one and I have to agree that size is a trade-off. I've been using virtual keyboards on PDAs for many years and computer keyboards longer than I care to devulge. However, I am able to type using this keyboard faster than I could using the stylus. I purchased it because there may be instances where I need the speed or I have to enter a lot of data. There will also be times I must let my significant other use my PDA to enter data. She can type a lot faster than I can and her hands are much smaller so I expect the keyboard will work great for her and well enough for me.
