i'm not sure to be honest - i want to look at a few options. i think a
thumbpad would be faster than a touchscreen for long e-mails, plus it
would give tactile feedback, which i find helps no end.

a full kb would be best, but not something i can carry round easily.
this caught my eye as well, from the same site:

only 218mm x 103mm

the frogpad looks great, but no way i can justify $100+ on it
