USB copy and paste keypad, does it exist?

[TheSiege]

I want a USB peripheral that does ctrl+c and ctrl+v anyone know where to get one?

Not quite sure what you mean, but I use a Logitech LX-7 mouse (you can use newer ones, but I like the button placement on this one) which is fully programmable with Setpoint. So I set one button to Ctrl+C, another to Ctrl+V and the scroll wheel button to Ctrl+A .. not normally needed much at home, but one job had an app that would only use those functions and not the normal Copy and Paste commands.

Have a look here:

Freestyle2 Keypad for PC
by Kinesis
Model # - AC800HPB-US (black)

The Kinesis Freestyle2 matches the low-profile design of the Freestyle2 keyboard and features the same proven low-force, quiet and tactile membrane key switches. By comparison, the Kinesis Low Force Tactile Numeric keypad is larger and uses a low-force tactile mechanical key switch with a longer operating life.

A 2-port USB 2.0 hub allows for the connection of peripherals such as a keyboard and mouse. Useful keys while performing numeric input of Tab and Backspace are included in the layout, and embedded actions to access Cut, Copy and Paste are also included. This product is an excellent, cost-effective means to add a high-quality external numeric keypad to your workstation.

You can get a keyboard with macro functionality, and then you can assign the buttons to your heart's content.
