Hi,
Just get the apple wired keyboard with numeric keypad. Bam, problem solved. From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Mr. L.

My Windows screen reader, Window-Eyes does everything I require of it without any use of a numpad. Does a Mac-driven laptop with VoiceOver require use of a numpad to operate?I was planning on trying for a MacBook Air soon.

It is very expensive compared to Windows versions but I would buy it like a shot because I am fairly desperate to have comfortable typing again. However there is one problem. The keyboard does not have a numeric keypad and I am a fan of num pad commander. The suggestion that they have made to me is that I purchase a separate numpad keyboard from them to go with the ergonomic keyboard . The numpad keyboards they sell are standard PC USB devices but they believe that they will work on a Mac. Having found it impossible to connect a windows ergonomic keyboard which is compatible with the Mac I am suspicious of claims that things should be compatible. Does anybody have successful experience of using a separate numpad keyboard with the Mac?
