Keyboard question

[Outforjustice]

I was just wondering - what is the difference between the Pocketop keyboard and the Micro Innovations keyboard. They look similar but I didn't know if they were the same keyboard or not. I see in the threads that people refer to them in the same way. Please advise as to any information that you can provide. I ordered a new in package Micro Innovations keyboard off Ebay for $50.00 with shipping and it came with a 5 day money back guarantee from the seller. I've read a lot of threads about the Pocketop and and wondering if I should have just gotten one of those. Also, can anyone give any information about the drivers. The Micro Innovations website says their keyboards have drivers for the Axim now. Thanks for the help!!!

I like mine, it is light and actually smaller than the axim. I have had to pass my dell case to another who can use it and find another case to hold it all.

That said, it is responsive and works well, will take a bit of getting used to. I can move to landscape mode and back somewhat easily and can use with ir reflector in portrait mode.

For what it's worth, they had mine branded pocketop, for $100 at staples, I found it on sale there for $80, and it had a $30 rebate. I also found a coupon for $20 off a purchase of $100 or more so I added a new usb cable for my printer. techincally I'd say it cost after all that about $40.

And worth every penny.

Oh yea it is powered by 1 AAA battery so it does not eat your Axim power.

I did the same as you. My MI keyboard works great. When you get it throw away the disk it came with and download the pocketop driver. I have connected the stand to keyboard and I used it in landscape mode. Just make sure you don't install the driver on the disk.
