I use a Freedom Mini Bluetooth Keyboard. It has all 4 sets of keys, a 4 directional tab (arrows), an Escape button, and most normal buttons. The only problem is that you have to hit the 2nd key (Num) to access characters such as comma and period. But ALL letters are typed without the Num key. It's $60, but I got a new one from eBay last week for only $40

I've looked at the stowaways, -but- they have the comma and period swapped (huh? Why?) and several others only have three rows of keys (no number row).

Also, Think Outside (which, IIRC, is the former Stowaway) does not have the period and the comma swapped -- at least not on my keyboard.

What keyboards can you folks recommend? (I'd prefer something under a hundred bucks if possible please!).
Thanks!
