Check out www.visikey.net. I just got one of their usb keyboards and it is ever so much easier to type now.
Do they roll up for transport? I have one that does, calling itself "The Virtually Indestructible Keyboard," made by www.grandtec.com, though I don't see it on that site now. I don't like it quite so well with a PC as a regular logitech rigid keyboard; but it is indeed a vast improvement on the 701. Trouble is, you have to have a table to set it on, and waiting rooms generally lack tables. If I ever take the little machine to the library, instead of a Thinkpad with Fedora, I'll certainly take the roll-up keyboard; it lives in the EeePC's pack, just for that purpose.
