Keyboard question

Can someone aim me at a "small" keyboard? I realize that "small"
is relative, so let's say something that's "appropiate" for my K3.
Something on the order of a small laptop keyboard in a housing.

I've walked the isles of a few computer departments scanning the
shelves, asked sales folks and haven't found anything.

I like the Happy Hacker keyboards but it may be a bit pricey for this.

cybergys.com sells a generic "black mini ps/2 keyboard" for $25 or
so. Also good.

Do a search on Google for "compact computer keyboard".

Hi Ken
I have one that might be what you are looking for.
I use it with TR LOG here.
The mfr is BTC, and I think the model is 5100-C.
It has no numeric key pad. It has 10 F keys.
Width is 11.75 inches by 6 inches deep.
Really fits well on my small operating desk.
It has foldup legs at the rear to raise the back
a bit for a more comfortable typing angle.
It was quite inexpensive, as I recall. Maybe
something around $20 at my local computer
store.
Good luck and 73

Maybe a bit larger than you are looking for, but we had some at work
that were tossed aside when they were delivered with new Agilent Digital
Communications Analyzers. I thought they were a very nice size, just
enough keys, not too many, etc. Must have really been a standard size
Agilent had procured elsewhere, obviously.
