This item has some unique features, you can use it as a stand alone calculator it uses a standard watch battery so it is easy to find a replacement. it is able to transfer your calculations to the computer via a single button. There is a down side to this item the keys are on the smaller side; most external 10 keys have large keys this unit´s keys are similar in size to a standard calculator so takes a little getting used to. All in all it is a good unit for the money.¤ 2) Electronics CE Kensington 19-Key External Pocket Keypad and Calculator (33059) by Kensington. Easy setup, works well, no problem. I have big hands so it could be a bit larger, I have developed a reasonable speed on it. Just one wish- wireless. Very good value for the money overall.¤ 3) Electronics CE Kensington 19-Key External Pocket Keypad and Calculator (33059) by Kensington. I almost didn´t buy this because of the negative reviews, esp. concerning using this keypad on Macs.
4) Electronics CE Kensington 19-Key External Pocket Keypad and Calculator (33059) by Kensington. I kept this thing and it does work as both a calculator and a keypad. However, if left plugged in to the USB port, the battery drains very quickly. I don´t move my laptop very often and wanted to be able to leave the keypad plugged in for any numeric entries I might need. By having to unplug it every time after use, and not be a heavy number cruncher, it is more of a hassle most of the time to attach the unit than to hunt and peck at the top for a few numbers. The keyboard layout is also not nearly as easy to use as the numeric pad on the keyboard that I have from an old iMac. I was able to enter numbers easily with that pad without looking but do not find the same ease of use with this unit. A great disappointment for me although I´m still using it. The power problem seems to me like an easy fix by simply adding a power on/off button, which it does not have.¤ 5) Electronics CE Kensington 19-Key External Pocket Keypad and Calculator (33059) by Kensington. I bought this product because I had just bought a beautiful new wireless keyboard for my Mac. The keyboard does not have a numeric keypad on it. In the past, I have never had a problem with Kensington products, but this one would not work to save it´s life, hence I returned it. If you have a Mac, do not think this product is plug and play, because it´s not. I was never able to get it to work. I bought instead a Goldtouch Apple compatible keypad and it worked immediately.... total plug and play. If you want ease of use, go with the Goldtouch. BTW, Amazon as always was fantastic at taking the gear back and issuing a refund. They´re the best. No questions asked, no equivocations. Hope this helps.¤ 6) Electronics CE Kensington 19-Key External Pocket Keypad and Calculator (33059) by Kensington.
