Artist Palette with Small Keyboard

This is a little BENQ keyboard. Very nifty.

I use a Toshiba Tecra M4 tablet pc. It has three USB ports built in. But for my purposes, that's not enough. I have an external harddrive that plugs into one. A mouse in another. And a keyboard in another. That leaves no room for a memory stick. So I have a very basic four-port extender.

This is an artist's palette made from plywood. It's a useful size, cos it fits nicely in the same bag as everything else, and it's big enough for me to pop a small portable keyboard on, along with a small mouse.

One of the other photos shows how I use it in conjunction with the table easel.

This photo has notes. Move your mouse over the photo to see them.

Ah! Thanks Dave!!! That's one damn cool li'l keyboard. Thanks for drawing my attention to it. My current setup weighs a ton. Mostly due to two things...

1. The Tecra M4 is a very heavy machine. Probably cos it's got a huge screen.

2. And the extension cables I carry -- power adaptors AND the 15m VGA cable -- are heavy heavy heavy.

I reckon that there must be a little unit I can buy somewhere that will allow me to do some kind of wireless broadcast of my screen to a video projector.

I know that the latest vid projectors have built-in wifi. Apparently they don't cope well with video signals. But they're totally cool with normal stuff happening on a computer screen.

Do you know of any such devices? (I'm thinking that it would be something that plugs into the VGA socket on my computer, with a little transmitter on it. And something that plugs into the VGA socket on the projector, that receives the radio signal.)
