  Good design but doesn't work with my laptop January 22, 2007 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I purchased this numeric keypad because it had a standard layout like conventional desktop numeric keypads. To be specific, it has a single, large 0/Insert key where others add the "000" key between the Enter and 0/Insert key. However, the moment that I plug it into my HP/Compaq laptop (running Windows XP Pro), it triggers an overload alert and the USB port is immediately disabled. No workaround.
  Nifty little item. January 3, 2007 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I have a 12' notebook and just hate fumbling through number keys as I am used to using a calculator and the number keypad on my keyboard. The attachable keypad speeds the numbering process up especially when creating documents in Excel. It also has two additional ports. Great little device!
  Nice Design, Flawed Implementation September 26, 2006 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
I picked one of these up for use with a 3D Design package, which makes use of the numeric keypad for special functions. Unfortunately, while the Pocket Keypad does work well for typing in numbers or cursor keys, it doesn't actually simulate the numeric keypad correctly. For applications that need to be able to distinguish between the numbers on the top row of the keyboard versus the numbers on the keypad, this device did not work. I wasted a couple hours trying to debug the setup before giving up and buying a different USB keypad (the Targus AKP01US) and finding it was the Kensington that was the problem.
Too bad, because otherwise it's a nice-looking, compact, and good-feeling unit. It just doesn't work right for my specialized application (a 3D package called Blender)
  Beware OS X users! March 13, 2006 6 out of 6 found this review helpful
Seems like a fine item, very affordable, and might perhaps work well on most systems... but while it says it's compatible with Mac systems above OS 8.6, it wouldn't interface properly with my OS X Powerbook. I contacted customer service to see whether I was perhaps just not setting it up properly, but after some trying of various strategies, customer service sent me an email saying that the device was just not compatible with my system. It does seem like the cheapest keypad for the buck, but I do wish they'd advertise more thoroughly about their compatibility.
  Nice compact keypad, 2 USB ports are a plus October 20, 2005 3 out of 4 found this review helpful
Using this for my wife's laptop, she ran out of usb's and also was tired of not having a numpad.
This a nice item, compact...well made.
