Looking for keyboard with touchpad and no split-style layout

[Valhalla1]

I posted this in peripherals, but no response.


My logitech internet keyboard has been through a LOT in the past few years, and I finally accidentaly broke off the plastic wrist rest that connects to the base of the kb. I never noticed how much I need that thing, I can't hardly use the keyboard without it! its driving me crazy!

I'm looking for a new keyboard, not a cheapie. I'd like to get one with a touchpad built in, but all the ones I've seen with that have the split-style ergonomic keys, which I HATE. I cannot use those, I taught myself to type at age 5, obviously I can type without looking at the keys, at about 75wpm accurately, not the fastest, but I don't do it correctly, and the way I type makes it impossible to use those damn split keyboards.

anyway, anyone reccoment a good keyboard with what I'm looking for? and programmable buttons/cd controls, etc. are a plus. wireless a plus too

thanks for the links. there was 1 (only 1) I found, I think at buy.com, all the rest had ergo style layouts, it was from a brand I'd not heard of, and it sounded like a basic windows keyboard with the touchpad built in. extra features would have been nice like programmable buttons, volume/cd controls, wireless, or usb, etc. but if I can't find another one I'll likely pick that one up. thanks
