What's your definition of portable? A small mechanical keyboard might be a good fit.
Good question. Too large would be something larger than the deck itself. I need it to fit into a regular day backpack with other stuff.
Too small would be one of those Rii style keyboards with built in trackpad that you need to hold in your hands and type with your thumbs.
Look at maybe a game pad + portable mouse? I use a Planck ortholonear kb for my steam deck, but you probably don't need a 45%kb.
Back in the day I used a nostromo game pad. This looks similar? https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0B84QHPDW
I'd not considered that, thanks
