Hi all .. I'd like a *very* small keyboard to use in the cars I'm mapping on the dyno .. the wireless keyboard I have is std size and it's quite bulky in small cars .. so I was wondering if there was any *half sized* keyboards out there? kind of like you can get small musical keyboards with small keys i was thinking the computer people might do something similar?

many thanks in advance for any help

Do any of these fit the bill?

(I have no experience of the company, it was just fairly high on the google results page for "small keyboard wireless", that's all)

What about the virtual bluetooth keyboard that projects the keyboard onto any flat surface?

I've just bought 2 for trials - a 'Freedom Mini Keyboard' which is about the size of a small wallet or 1.5x the size of a credit card and a fold out keyboard (which is actually full size when expanded). They're OK, bluetooth devices but are a little but fiddley to use.

I've got the Apple bluetooth one for one of my Mac Minis. Nice and compact but not sure how compatible it would be.

I use a Logitech wireless bluetooth keyboard. It's not tiny, but similar to a laptop keyboard-with a separate numerical pad. Range is very good as well.

Hope this helps,

I have used the following for business presentations etc, incredable range, less than half size keyboard, gyroscopic mouse - expensive but does work!

Seconded! Was going to suggest the Gyration stuff myself. Great quality!

Thirded. Found the mouse really needs line of sight to the receiver though.
