No, both the IR and BT keyboard versions have the numbers in the top row, available using a function key. The folding version I loved with my old Jornada 568 had a number row and also the embedded keypad available using a numlock key (embedded keypad is usually used to refer to a layout like notebooks have where there is a standard keypad overlaid on some of the letter keys that you access through Fn and/or NumLk keys). I really miss the numeric entry speed that the embedded keypad layout allowed, but I will take that trade-off to have the very sveldt BT version they put out. I don't do enough spreadsheet work directly on the device for this to be a killer. The flexibility in positioning keyboard to device is great.
