The right external keyboard ?

#1 Post by tomkit66 » Fri Oct 28, 2005 4:34 am

Hi,

I need an external keyboard for my T43p but I am not sure which one is the best and where the differences are.

Since I just got my two Dell 2005FPW, both are connected to a MiniDock II (VGA, DVI, Laptop screen turned off) I would like to be able to close the T43 while working. Is that possible?

I like the "touch and feel" of the T43 keyboard, the fingerprint reader to start the machine and the Fn Hotkeys. So which external keyboard comes close to it?

Connected via bluetooth or wireless would be nice too!

Thanks in advance
Tom

... but I would like to know what users have to say about their keyboards, what kind of advantages and disadvantages exist etc.

... also if I can fully control my T43and get the same features with one of the external keyboards.

Thanks

I like this one

http://www-131.ibm.com/webapp/wcs/store ... Id=8581826

It has trackpoint, ultra nav. I also think the keyboard feels like the thinkpad keyboard.

Little steep on price though
