New wireless keyboard

[legohead]

Has anyone tried the "Wireless IR Keyboard" from NovaETS? This keyboard works without mirrors by having an IR transmitter that extends to the top of the PDA. It seems convenient. Does anybody know how it works?

if anyone's wondering, a bunch of these keyboards are on ebay for around $40 (just do a search for "wireless pda keyboard").

i am hoping someone has used it so we can find out how well it works.

fjl307, make the link in your signature a clickable one. More people will click it.

You can also sign up at Pocketop.com for a monthly give-away. (BTW, the links that I've followed from LegoHead all look like the Pocketoop Keyboard from Microtek) ...just an FYI, these do NOT work with OS5.

srod... That is not the pocketop keyboard! the pocketop keyboard only transmits IR from the keyboard itself- requiring a mirror to be placed on the PDA. This keyboard does not require a mirror since it has a second mechanism to transmit an infrared beam. Check again. The outer design may look very similar, but it is definitely not the same one.
