Dan,

I have the extended TP keyboard w/ the trackpoint and love it. It would
be very hard to use anything else now. It is extremely rugged (it has
survived several 2-3 foot drops from my keyboard tray to the hard floor
plus a beer spilled in the early days). Having the TrackPoint is a huge
plus for me as I find using a mouse very awkward after getting used to
the point on my 755cx and external keyboard.

On the downside, they are pretty expensive. When you think you can get
a decent keyboard for $25-30 the $100 plus for the extended keyboard is
pretty stiff. For me the investment was worth it.

Good luck (BTW, I use the keyboard w/ a Dock II).
