Also, the discounted price you see for the Keytronics will not apply (usually) to the AT&T model since most dealers must special order it. The separate numeric and cursor pads are a sham in the sense that only one can be active at once and they are toggled by useing a "cursor pad" key located above them. The list cost is about $150. I would recommend spending the $90 (I believe) to buy a new AT&T Kbd, you can use either the 6300 (#301) or 6300+ (#302) model, rather than wasting your mouse.
