I purchased my NX 70 about four months ago and the salesman also sold me the KB11 keyboard - "it will work". We all know the story. However, I can not remove the keyboard driver from the NX. I now want to try the Belkin Wireless PDA Keyboard (uses IR and has small footprint - but anything would help). The old KB 11 driver seems to interfere with the new Belkin driver. Help on how to remove the old KB 11 driver please. Thanks in advance.

Disregard - I found the answer posted earlier on how to remove read only files. The original post, copied below, worked and removed the KB11 keyboard drivers:
You can do a warm reset, which is done by holding the Up button while resetting. This won't load anything so there will be no VG area. Hit Ctrl-H on the keyboard, go to Filez, then you can change the attribute, delete or move the file. Then do a regular reset.</DIV>

Ok, very simple, you have to delete the application before it's loaded into the operating system. Once it's loaded, the operating system protects itself from crashing by locking the application.
By using the warm reset, it allows you to prevent the application from loading into the operating system. This way, it can be deleted without crashing the Clie.
You can do a warm reset, which is done by holding the page Up button while pushing in the reset button on the backside of the Clie with the pin from inside your stylus. This won't load anything so there will be no Virtual Graffiti area either. Hit Ctrl-H on the keyboard, go to the Clie Files(file manager), then you can delete the desired application. Afterwards, you then need to do a regular reset by using the little pin from inside your stylus to push the reset button in the backside of your Clie.
