Kensington Ci70 Keyboard Has USB/Mini USB Ports and Laptop-Styled Keys
We love Kensington's low-profile keyboards with the laptop style keys, which is why this Ci70 keyboard looks so appetizing. It's got two USB ports, nothing special, but a mini USB connector that actually hides underneath a cover on top.
