I too was looking for that Liteon SK-7100, but it vanished from newegg.
I did however find this Silitek SK-7551 PS/2 IR Keyboard/mousestick for
$USD 23.50 here:
<http://store.yahoo.com/pctekonline/skcomwirkeyw.html>
Their customer service was good.
Although it is grey & black in the photo, it is actually all black.
It works fine with X, but I have not yet tried to learn it's IR codes.
Seems quite sturdy. In fact, the reciever looks identical to the LiteOn
one. I suspect that Silitek made the other one for LiteOn. Anyhow I've
been using a Silitek desktop keyboard for 4 years now and it's never let
me down.
