keyboards
I am looking to buy a wireless keyboard so that I can take notes in class (much easier and faster then hand writing). Is there a brand that members prefer over the dell brand.

Thanks in advance

Just got my TO mouse & keyboard combo from Expansys - very impressed! The Dell keyboard is also made by Think Outside I believe.

I agree with Think Outside as well but also consider the mouse. I got the mouse thinking it would be a nice gadget but now I can't believe how much I love it!

If you are on a budget, stick with the Think Outside infrared. It works fine for my notes/games although you have to align the wand before you can start typing (not really a problem)

There are several threads on keyboards you can look at to get a ton of opinions... my vote is for the Think Outside Keyboard and Mouse!

Expansys still has the Mouse/Keyboard combo I think. I got it for $150CDN shipping incl and it arrived in 3 days! You have to call or email to confirm though.

IR Keyboard question
Is it possible to use the Think Outside IR keyboard while plugged into an AC adaptor? My concern about the IR keyboards is battery drain.

I use the IR Thinkoutside keyboard myself and love it. I was wondering if there is away of modifing the keyboard where the unit would seat in it better with the bigger battery pack.

I have one of them 2200 battery pack and with it in the unit it seats on top of the wire. Is there anyway of coming up with something that would hold the Axim in a little bit better?
