Belkin IR Keyboard FYI
Hey guys: I just wanted to put a post up about this keyboard because I spent a couple hours searching to figure out why it wouldn't work with my Axim 51x. First thing I did was download the drivers, I downloaded and installed the old driver and then copied the new .cab file into the program. The next step is orientating the Axim's IR with the Keyboards. This was an annoyingly long process in which I had to hold the shift key's down on the keyboard while the axim was laid down flat on my desk facing the keyboard. After about 10 minutes, the two connected. After that I was able to put the Axim back on the stand and connect to the keyboard in a matter of seconds. I have no Idea why the first connection was so annoyingly long and arduous, however, now that everything seems to be working I love it! Hope this post saves a headache or two.

Speaking of keyboards, I got myself a ThinkOutside Universal Bluetooth keyboard and it works pretty well. I had a bit of trouble at first because the tiny manual said to press a key combination to make the keyboard detectable, but nothing would happen. So I emailed the support and learned that by "press" the manual actually meant "hold down for some number of seconds," which after doing it worked great. lol. They just need to revise that manual.

yeah, the Belkin came with a single sheet of instructions that did absolutely nothing. I finally got the thing working after searching this site for an hour or so and finding a few tips and tricks.

Exactly--by "manual" I also meant "folded sheet of paper," most of the facets of which were in languages I don't know.

But hey, as long as it works now and I no longer have to lug my huge rock of a laptop to class to type notes, I'm happy! D
