Sorry if you've all been through this a million and one times, but I was wondering if you lot could recomend a keyboard to me. I've had a few names suggested, but I just wanted to know if there were any favourites amongst you, what the drivers were like, battery life and so on.

Thank you!

Yes,its the same keyboard,different manufacturer.If you are looking to buy one,search for MicroInnovations,they are a lot cheaper then the original Pocketop or the one you posted.

Ebay is a good place to buy a pocketop. Going much cheaper these days. Can pick one up for under 20 GBP.

Sorry for bringing this thread back from the dead, but I picked up a pocketop keyboard fairly cheap on ebay last week and have a few questions on it. I got the open source driver from Sourceforge and it seems to work ok. Except that it has to be turned on like an application and if left on it eats up the phone's battery (due to the infa red receiver being left on constantly). I was wondering if anyone had got the 'official' driver from Pocketop and how well it works. I've read that development of the driver was halted when it was still in beta and that the beta is no longer available. Is it possible to get this anywhere? I know there is an online request form on the pocketop site but I suspect that they will decline requests for the driver now.
