Number key stickers for k3
These are an almost perfect size match, if you want a number row above your qwerty line, ala DX:

I do lot of number entry (index lookup/goto) so got tired of the mental gymnastics.

Enough to supply a small army of k3 owners! I wish Amazon has embossed the numbers on the unit. Too bad I don't trust my engraving skills (NONE).

You could also just burn the numbers right into your kindle with something really hot and save yourself some pennies. And to hell with the warrenty; who needs such a silly, little thing anyway.

But seriously, I also have a bit of a trouble finding the right numbers sometimes; confuses my eyes a lot looking at em' bottons.

I guess they might have left the numbers out for aesthetical reasons, though.

I know, engraving would be nice... I suspect these will wear off eventually, but they look quite nice for now.

I love the alt-button option for entering numbers. I just wish that they'd gone ONE step further in adding some of the punctuation marks that way. I use my kindle to jot down writing ideas for future projects as they come to me, and the "sym" key is getting worn down because I hit it so often. =)

Also, I would *love* to find out some way to make the Alt stick for a number sequence entry...

I had no idea you could enter numbers that way. I thought you had to go in through the symbols menu!

Thank you so much for posting this! I have been looking for a sticker to go across the top row ever since I got my K3!
