As a few said in the comments on that article, few purchased the small Wired keyboard.

It's fine for a Wireless one that fits in the lap, but the wired small keyboard made no sense to me, as if you sitting at a desk and want a wired keyboard, why not buy the full sized one with the numeric keypad?

I hope that someday Apple offers a full sized Bluetooth keyboard with a numeric keypad.

Hopefully, this will cut down on those "Where's my forward delete key?" and "Where's my page up key?" threads.
