Help -- trying to find a specific keyboard...

I've been looking for a week or two now with no luck so far, so I thought I'd see if anyone else may have an idea. I'm currently using a standard keyboard, and am looking to 'upgrade' to a multimedia one. The problem is, I've become so accustomed to the positioning of my delete/end/page keys being on the row right above my arrow keys, it's too hard to switch that. I've so far only found two keyboards that have multimedia keys, as well as have moved the print screen/scroll/pause buttons down a row...one was ergo, which I can't stand, and the other was a wireless w/ mouse combo and ran around $85.

This is a picture of my current keyboard; you can see how the print screen area keys have been moved down and power/sleep/wake have been added. With those keys being down lower, I can map more stuff to them for gaming and it really helps.

The keyboard that's been the closest to what I want so far is the belkin one linked below; the only problem being that it's a combo, and costs quite a bit.

Does anyone know of, or has anyone ever seen a keyboard with the specifics I'm looking for; one that won't break my bank? I've gone through newegg and mwave, as well as several retailers and manufacturers sites with no luck thus far.

Thanks.
 
You might as well get used to some new keys, they like to move them all the time. The only keyboards I know of that look like yours are 3 year old dell quietkey keyboards but they don't have the big spacebar.
 
Heh, this one is a memorex, about 2 years old...bought a couple of them from comp usa for $9.99 each. There are a few companies who make current ones that're basically exactly what mine is now, with additional power/sleep/wake keys over the print screen area. However finding one with the multimedia keys as well is what I'm having trouble with. As for the oversized spacebar, that I don't really care about, heh.
 
Found this keyboard today...exactly what I'm looking for, except it's ergo. Anyone seen something like this without the ergo?

That one is pretty similar to the one I'm using now...doesn't have the multimedia keys. I'm hoping to find one that's got the additional multimedia keys for things like browser, email, music, etc.
