And even if that's all it would take, since the keyboard sold so poorly and 
is so long out of production, there never will be one. 

I found a box full of the keypads and wrist rests in a used computer store's
junk pile once. I sold enough of the pads and rests to get back my investment
and then some. I never have gotten the keyboard part since they're so scarce,
and I was pretty lucky to get the pads. They work great for giving page and 
function keys and a keypad to a Powerbook, and for making a standard keyboard
into a poor man's extended keyboard. But they do funky stuff to the bus. When
I put one on the Color Classic with a standard keyboard II, reset ceased 
functioning on the IIe card. I've never tried using a pad on the IIgs but I'd
expect problems if I did.
