5.0 out of 5 stars I love this thing!, February 13, 2004

By	Eric J. Eidle "Egon-Look-Alike" (Boyertown, Pennsylvania United States) - See all my reviews

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!

1.0 out of 5 stars NOT for Accountants and other Finance types!, January 30, 2003

By A Customer

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.

4.0 out of 5 stars It Works, September 17, 2003

By	Aser Tolentino (Vacaville, California USA) - See all my reviews

I certainly wish it were smaller, but I guess that'd be hard to manage while retaining the feel of a normal keypad. The unit works well and adds some features that would probably be handy for spreadsheet work, like enter and backspace keys.
