Keyboard for my Palm Tungsten T

[Anonymous]

I have a Palm Tungsten T and would like to get a keyboard for it.

I used to use a Palm Portable Keyboard with my old Palm V, the quality of which I was very happy with. Sadly it isn't compatible with my new Palm.

Any recommendations?

Many thanks

I did the "same" thing!

I upgraded to the T3, and bought the Ultra-Thin Keyboard.

It's great, and actually smaller than the other one. (It is a bit different, so takes some getting used to...)

Slightly different question: IR keyboard for Sony UX40?

Slightly different but related question:

I'm debating right now between a T3 and a Sony UX40. I can't find anything concrete saying that the UX40 is compatible with any of the IR keyboards out there. Does anyone know if it is?

Thanks.

If you follow Jason's link, "more" info on the Ultra-Thin says it is compatible with the Tungsten T.

Ultrathin keyboard is compatible with Tungsten T.

Ultrathin keyboard is compatible with Tungsten T. I used it before switching to Tungsten E (better Contacts database).

Thanks to all for your input.
I think I will go for the wireless or the Ultra-Thin.

The wireless one seems to have the added advantage of leaving the SC card slot free but the Ultra Thin one is more expensive - and experience tells me that's usually because its better built.
Does anyone have 1st hand experience of both so they can tell me what they think re quality?

Cheers

Mini Review of the Palm Wireless Keyboard

I have the Palm Wireless Keyboard, and I wrote a very brief review of it in my blog...

...but I've never seen the Ultra-Thin, so I can't compare the two.

I do not know what you mean by saying:

The wireless one seems to have the added advantage of leaving the SC card slot

The Ultra-Thin does not use the SD card slot too. It uses the craddle connector at the bottom of the PDA. The real drawback is that you cannot use the external power supply while using the Ultra-Thin and additionally the keyboard draws the supply from the PDA.

Thanks Testeq.
Yes I mean the UC is free on the wireless keyboard, but not if I use the Ultra-Thin.
