I am looking at getting a keyboard also.
From what I have read different IR keyboard manufacturers have come up with different solutions to the lame-IR problem.

Targus has their IR Tx (transmitter) on an arm that swings around to be extremely close to the Axim Rx (receiver).

Belkin sets the Axim on a stand and has mirrors to properly direct the IR signal.

Pocket Top even has a little adapter to connect the IR ports of their keyboard with the Axim.

I think some of these are solutions you'll be able to live with. Seatch AximSite for keyboards and you will find these and discussions about them.

I haven't made a choice yet. Belkin has a discount, so you can get it for $30 (found discount code somewhere on Aximsite), and Targus put the IR so close to be great, plus they use the coin sized battery. I'm not sure what I'll do???!!!!
