Would supplying you with information regarding a PS2-to-USB adapter
suffice as an answer? This would allow use of any PS2 based keyboard
via USB port.

If that is the best way to go, then I would appreciate information on
the adapters and info on PS2 keyboards with touchpads.

Thanks

montyview,

Thank you for your question.  In researching for your needs, I found
that the majority of the USB keyboards with touchpads are mini
keyboards, which are designed for use on laptops.  If that is what you
are looking for, here is a model you can look at:

DS International Compact Keyboard w/ Touchpad

If you are looking for a full size keyboard, your best option would be
get a PS2-to-USB adapter.  This will allow you to use any keyboard
that is available via your USB port.  You can find a PS2-to-USB
adapter here:

There are several models of keyboards with built in touchpads that are
available.  They range from standard layout to ergonomic and
everything in between:
