I just ordered a similar model (flexible silicon USB keyboard) direct from a supplier in Hong Kong for $5 (under $12 with shipping). The only differences are three-fold: 1) no special BB menu keys, 2) standard (not mini) USB jack), and 3) the price.

You need to run software to use the keyboard. I’m waiting for someone to release an app that will let any USB keyboard run, so I may connect one of my $5 keyboards via USB with a mini-USB converter.
