Well, Wikipedia says: The reason that the keypad of keyboards and calculators are different is that the first security keycodes had been invented before the touchtone telephone, and did not require the extra + - % / keys and so the touch tone adopted this 1, 2, 3 at the top rather than 1, 2, 3 at the bottom as it too only required 12 keys. [citation needed] ... if you trust them.
