We are not compatible with the P900 Device.

Thank you for you interest in the Stowaway Keyboards

Hi

I see from your website you have a beta driver for P800.

Will that work for P900?

TIA

Cheers

Peter

If their driver works for p800 it will work for p900 as well no matter what they claim. Still, no need to use that one, whatever it is... the open driver supports thinkoutside just fine.

If its supported by a driver then buy one, I spent £50on a palm one from dabs, I love it, one of the few phone accesories that hasnt gone ebay! If you

there are a couple of other treds about IR keyboards and P900.

Another question: is it correct that any brand IR keyboard should work with these (generic?) drivers?
TIA

I cant be sure, but I dont belive thes drivers are generic to all IR drivers, as far as I know IR keyboards are not all the same, in the way they transmit the info (they only transmit).

The drivers on my previous post are for the palm/think outside, targus and poket top keyboards.

If I switch my driver to a different keyboard it doesn't perform as normal, (the del key turns into J) and alsorts of other weird changes too!

So anything other than the types listed are unlikely to perform as expected if at all.

But if you have one, you could download the driver and tryit. Let us all know.
