I would actually recommend against this item. The range on the keypad either sucks or the item itself is faulty. I can have the keypad in my lap and my laptop less than a foot away and the keypad will skip numbers when I'm trying to calculate or type in a string of numbers. It also seems to independantly turn off the number lock key. Save your money.

This product works very well and is easy to use. The only draw back I have noticed is that my coworker has the same keypad and we cannot both use them at the same time. If we both have the receivers plugged in, whatever I type shows up on both screens.

I have not had any of the problems described by other reviewers. I highly recommend this product!
I will agree that the receiver that plugs into the USB port is a little on the fat side, and makes it a little difficult to use my second USB port, although not impossible.
I'm not sure why people were sitting 3 feet away from their computer using their keypad - I usually have it on my desk next to my laptop, or I sit back in my chair with the keypad in my hand.
The only time I had problems with it picking up what I was typing was when the battery was low. I changed the battery and the problem was solved!

We are very happy with the wireless stow n go keypad. Keypad is very comparable to an actual computer keyboard keypad.

The keypad is unreliable. It often registers only about 2/3 of the keys pressed, and at best still misses a key here and there. The included USB cable must be used to ensure proper performance, which of course defeats the purpose of buying a wireless device. The range varies each time I tried to use it, sometimes it would work a few feet away (the 3.3 ft. range claimed by Targus), but often it had to be within 12 inches of the receiver to work. I actually purchased 2 of these Stow-N-Go keypads and had the exact same problems with both. I give it two stars, not one, because under the perfect conditions it worked all right and for that brief time it was nice to have a wireless device. I'm returning these for a refund.
