Microsoft Bluetooth Mobile Keyboard 6000

The Microsoft Bluetooth Mobile Keyboard 6000 offers a much wider typing surface than a laptop's, but still manages to conserve valuable space with a detached keypad as well as extreme thinness. The advantage of it being Bluetooth removes the need for a wireless receiver or a USB cable chained to your laptop, another useful thing when on the road.
