Ok, so here I have the overhead keyboard on top of the monitor at and angle. I tied it down with a piece of dubble sided tape, and some string... I just got to connect this to da USB, but I have also looked at the PC Dash by Saitech, which looks cool aswell. especially since you can print the background and buttons for that. Ill have to see if I can find one when I'm in Miami next month. tell me what you think.

Do you have both keyboards at same time? How do you configure this?

Best regards

Right now I've got the bottom keyboard in the normal keyboard port. The top keyboard in the USB with a Keyboard-USB adaptor, since its a normal old keyboard. It works, but on the top keyboard I have to glue down the shift key becuase the keys are the same on both keyboards. An A is an A on both keyboards. But an A and a shift A is different.

REally a good idea. I'll try this.

Now call me silly, (like my girl does?!?)
but isn't it just easier to press the caps lock key to get an A instead of an small a? Or doesn't this work in the Netherlands?

That works fine in Word, no for a keyboard command. Same for cntrl or alt keys.
