So plug a regular one in the port on the back.
I do that whenever I'm using my laptop.
For the same reason!

Err...I brought EVERYTHING except for the one thing that would have helped in this little instance. A USB HUB!. It's a T-42 (IBM) ThinkPad. I don't have a docking station, so there are no PS/2 ports on it. There are TWO USB ports on it, but I've got them occupied using a mouse and a USB card reader that I use a LOT.
We're away from home this week, but I "might" hop over to WallyWorld later and pick up a cheap USB hub though. That would at least let me use the full sized USB keyboard that I brought.
The only thing that bothers me more is this touch pad mouse, but I brought the regular mouse! :-)
It's not that big of a deal...just a pet peave of mine....and as I use this laptop keyboard more, I get better with it. :-)

I use one of those roll up keyboards. They are soft rubber, can be rolled up or folded up for the laptop bag, and have good key feed-back.
