Question BT Keyboard Gaming

I got a question for those of u who have a wireless, or wired keyboard. Does it work with the games....How bad is the lag...Is it possible to possible play games like gfdoom with them?

I have an Infrared keyboard, not BT, but i have noticed lag :(. If you are thinking of gaming, i wouldn't really buy it for that... Maybe its my batteries, but i doubt it, they just aren't for gaming.

Got mine for 30 bucks, but they are usually around 80.

Sure did. My config is x50v with the Dell Executive keyboard.

It took a little fiddling with the BT setup to get the key repeat settings correct. There is a small lag but it is definately playable.

If you'd like, PM me your email and I'll shoot a .MOV with my camera and you can judge for yourself.

Go Pack! :approve:

I've got the wired one that you can order from Dell, and there's zero lag :)

I didn't bother to try to use the PSone emulator, no point since the games are so big. I have used PocketGB, PocketNES and PocketSNES with the belkin IR keyboard without problems. It sounds that the same keyboard appears to work with Morphgear though I haven't tried since I prefer to use free software.

I got the keyboard free with the Axim so I don't know off-hand how much they cost.
