Anyone have any recommendations for buying this keyboard in the UK?

I've found this one at the palm store for 60 pounds:

http://www.palmdirect.com/dr/v2/Ec_Main.entry24?SP=10023&PN=1&V1=612612&xid=45007&search_id=15335471&doc_id=1&DSP=&CUR=826&PGRP=0&CACHE_ID=81285

which is a bit much if people are only paying 60 dollars for it in the US.

I just bought a palm wireless keyboard, and installed the driver on my P900 from my Mac. I switched on Infrared on my P900 (I chose the PC connect option), lined up the infrared port and then... nothing happened. So I tried the other Infrared option (Modem) and still nothing happened. Is there something I'm doing wrong?

Hi !

You can find an updated version of the driver with US, FR and DE layouts, supports for cut copy paste etc ...

Hi,

I have P900 and am not that literate in the keyboard drivers that you have offered for download, but which ones (there are 2 at the site) am I supposed to use, or do I have to use both. Is it a straight forward install? Thanks for the great work you guys are doing and am thanking you in advance for the advice. Very much appreciated.

Thanks for updating the driver!
Only have one remark. As I am working with a Pocketop keyboard, I notice the following things:
The [LeftFn] functions are not working as I don't have a [LeftFn] button. Is there a Pocketop equivalent?
The Shift + -> and +
Hope for an answer, 'cause I do like the driver and keyboard.

don't miss this other option: http://www.mobilelinktech.com/shop/snaptype/keyboard_nr.php

it works with direct irda connection (like the pocketop), no need for the reflector (despite the photo). and so far it has the best driver support i've seen.

Unfortunately the pocketop part is little bit late compared to the thinkoutside part simply because I only have a thinkoutside for the moment...

I still hope to receive a sample from the manufacturer so I could put it at the same level.

Hi,

I really liked the snapntype keyboard and like the fact that they have worldwide shipping for ppl lik eme staying in India.

Before i take the plunge n get me of these babies, can someone who has used this type of thing with the P900 tell me that if it is possible to use the keyboard to type in applications like instant messengers like IM+ or JMsn or TipicMe and even write posts in forums??

Stupid question i guess....but thats me. Lookin for the answer.

Cheers,
Doc.

Yes they work in all apps that I've tried (certainly all apps that accept the regular uiq input methods). As for eDoom it wont work atm, since all other apps (including the keyboard driver) are closed when launching it. Perhaps this could be avoided if the keyboard app could be flagged as a system app?
