Style Name:Keypad
----------
(The item I am reviewing is Targus PAUK10U USB Keypad)
----------
This doesn't work with a mac unless...
Do exactly as I say and it will work fine:
1. When your Targus keypad is disconnected press and hold the Num Lock button.
2. Connect your Targus Keypad USB cable to your mac USB port (not a hub) while still pressing and holding the Num Lock key.
3. When the Num Lock green LED light goes on, wait for exactly at least three seconds (count 1, 2, 3) then release the Num Lock Key.
4. Now it shouldn't Beep and it will work fine in programs like Excel.
-----------
I am typing a bunch of numbers on it as a proof below:
123456789 0 000 . / * - +
It works smoothly.
-----------
I gave it three stars only for being such a hassle to use on macs when any stupid USB keyboard would just work.
I have a MacBook (latest intel black model) running mac OS X 10.5.6
-----------
I hope that was helpful.

Style Name:Keypad/Calculator
I own this keypad, and I must say, it is great. It plugs right into your USB Port via a 3 foot USB cable (which winds up inside the keypad). This keypad has two modes: calculator, regular keypad.
When it's in calculator mode, it functions just like one. So, if you want to send calculated data to your document, you hit the send button. Additionally in this mode, it has the memory function of the most basic calculators (M+, M-, MRC). It can also do percent, square roots, and pos./neg.
When it's in its regular keypad mode, it's exactly like the numeric keypad on your regular computer (with Num Lock, etc.). It also has a Tab key and a Backspace key, which function just as they would on a normal keyboard.
One of the best plusses about this is that the keys are "built" like your laptop keys. I'm sure you've noticed how laptop and regular keyboard keys are different. These keys are like the ones on your laptop.
I HIGHLY recommend this for my fellow laptop users!

Style Name:Keypad/Calculator
If you're a wiz at 10-key, this is NOT the keypad for you. I'm an accountant and the last thing I want to worry about is wondering if the number key I pressed actually registered. My Targus USB Mobile Mini requires me to put the keypad very, very carefully or I'll have missing numbers. I have never experienced this problem on a keyboard numeric keypad -- they all seem to have the tactile response of a calculator. I would not recommend this item, it is sitting in my desk drawer right now. I pulled out my old keyboard and hooked it up to my laptop to get access to the numeric keypad.

The item works well, comes with extra usb connections so that once you plug in you have to extra usb ports to use on the device. Easily portable and easy to connect.

Not the same as the picture: PAUK10U
BE CAREFUL when you buy. The product I received at home is NOT THE SAME AS ADVERTISED in the picture, it's advertised the PAUK10U but what I received was the PAUK10C. Read more

Pluses and minuses
I like the extra USB ports but you have to remember they are 1.1, not the faster 2.0 or 3.0. The 000 key is pretty useless to me and I wish it has the normal larger single 0 key... Read more

Love it
I love this thing. Super easy and feels strong and sturdy. I am not an accountant so I cannot comment on how well it would work for fast pace number inputting.

Weird packaging; decent product
I thought it was strange when my number pad showed up in an envelope with only a polybagged number pad inside. There was no box, no instructions, nothing but the pad. Read more

The buttons are my only qualm
Pros:
- 2 extra USB ports on the unit so that it won't take up your ONE remaining port
- Backspace button -- I have found that to be very useful, and I didn't think that... Read more
