Does anyone have a mini/compact keyboard recommendation? I've found some online but it's hard to know whether they are actually smaller (less than 6 inches between P and Q) or if they just compact the size around a regular keyboard. I type one handed with my left (uninjured side) hand and the keyboard at work is giving me a repetitive strain injury. I'd like to find a smaller one that I can replace it with (and take with me if I change jobs, etc). Thoughts? Would anyone recommend the leapfrog or other ones set up for one-handed typers specifically?
Thanks,
Carrie

Carrie, are you certain the problem is the size of the keyboard?

Anyway, I think I need to check out what's available now. Was that the FrogPad you were referring to?

My preference for 6 years is the $30 Macally USB Slim Keyboard. Although it is full size, it has laptop-style scissor switch keys that require very little force. I also had to train myself not to reach with my pinky, but move my wrist instead. Also, I install this keyboard on every PC or Mac I use in the day.

Carie,
I BUMPED UP a Thread on One-Handed Keyboard discussion for you on the General Message Forum Board. You may find the information somewhere there as it was quite lengthy discussion, many posts on it.
