I've seen a handful of people's pics where they have the folding bt keyboards. I'd like to have a portable kbd with a trackpad for those infrequent times it'd be useful.

Has anyone had a good experience with one they can recommend?

The Steam Deck track pads are going to be better as a mouse than anything on a keyboard.

Sure but if the Deck is propped up and I'm using the keyboard I need something.

Nah man, I hate using the trackpads on the SD. They feel wrong for me and are quite unpleasant. But trackpads are also not my favorite, so I just use a tiny mouse if I need to do something in desktop mode.
