Wireless keyboard for arcade machine?
Blanka:
My faves:
Apple wireless keyboards.
The upper is better for Windows, as it does not have the bad attitude of the aluminium one regarding F-keys.
New hot kid on the block:
Boxee remote. Wonder if it becomes available as separate buy.
But the best option is remote access. Use your other PC to control the cabinet PC!
RayB:
There is also now the option to use your iPhone or iPad to see your desktop and control the PC (via Wifi though)

Not sure if you need more options but I will chime in anyway....
I picked up this one: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16823176018
(IOGEAR GKM561R)
$10 off at the moment so it comes in at $40 or so. It works fine within my cocktail and it is nice and compact and easy to pack away.
I also have, but I am not sure I recommend this unless you have a lot of extra money floating around, is a custom made wall plate with a USB, Ethernet and monitor (BD9?) jack. It looks really nice but it is rather pricey once you start adding the components. This would allow you to plug in a standard USB keyboard.
