I'm on the other side. I like the numpad, but I wish there was another place for it. But then, I also use a mouse!

You can get a TKL keyboard and an external numpad. Then you can put the numpad in some other location around the keyboard/mouse combo.

There is! With a programmable (preferably grid-layout) keyboard, you can have a numpad accessible from the homerow.

Edit: I do realize this can be inconvenient at times, but I primarily use an external keyboard with my laptop.
