Newegg Mall has the Rii Mini Wireless Keyboard with Touchpad for $50 with free shipping. Features backlit function, 2.4G wireless receiver, built-in rechargeable lithium-ion battery, full QWERTY keyboard and built-in laser pointer. Buy.com also has it for the same price.
I bought this directly from China at bacon.com for $41 (although you have to wait for 2 weeks+ for shipping).
It's a good device for HTPCs (and only HTPCs - it's not good enough for all-day mousing/keyboarding). It's only major flaw is the wireless transmitter is kind of weak (so if there's furniture between the keyboard and USB-dongle receiver, you can lose signal and start to get erratic cursor movement and lose keystrokes). If that's not a problem for you, then I recommend buying it - it's really cool.
I just bookmarked Pandawill_com. I wonder why Ben censors that. I guess he wants people to think only the sites that pay him provide the bargains.
There were spammers pimping that site.
Also, it has questionable service, resellerratings.com shows only 4 out of 10 stars for the past 6 months and a lot of the positive reviews seem suspiciously alike, short and fake.
However, just because a word turns into bacon that doesn't mean a link won't work (see above, it works in the forum just not on the homepage listings).
Amazing! It's like a cell phone keyboard, only w/o the cell phone.
This is exactly what iv been waiting 4. Come on all u geeks, don't u have anything else to say about this wonderful piece of technology?

Stop spamming this board with talk about buying stuff for low prices at specific websites, #3. Goes totally against Ben's vision for a better web.

Someone here referenced this seller and it is where I picked up mine. Sweet little device.
