I bought a 'Universal PDA Keyboard' and found it wasn't as universal as they had told me! It came with drivers for PPC2003 and previous but nothing for WM5 and that is what I needed. I did try the other drivers but of course they didn't work.

So.... does anyone have a model and make of keyboard that they KNOW works on an X51v with WM5 PLEASE? I desperately need one due to physical disability making it hard to input without a keyboard. Needs to be portable so i can carry it around with me and needs to be available to me in the UK (I don't mind buying it from abroad if they will send to UK).

Any help will not only be appreciated but will also bestow upon you peace and happiness for a minimum of 6 hours a day (assuming you sleep for at least 6 hours )

Cheers,
Rob

What kind of kybd is it

Dell Axim X51v wm 6.1 Palm-Center 128mb RAM upgrade, Widcomm BT Stack, Innopocket Mag Case, PNY 16 GB sdhc, Kingston 16 GB CF Card, Jabra BT 620 headphones

Dell Axim X30 624 mhz-Belkin snap on keyboard, extended battery

I currently use this keyboard with my x51v:
Stowaway Ultra Slim Bluetooth Keyboard
If I were to do it over again, I would go for the one with the number row:
Stowaway Sierra Bluetooth Kbd

Drivers are either available with the unit, or I found them online, too.

 

Same here. My Stowaway Ultra Slim worked well with my X51v and also with other devices.

Another vote for the igo stowaway.

The Stowaway revolutionized my Axim.

Hey, saint-francis, didn't both of us spring for the $30 deal on Amazon earlier this year? I don't think that deal is still running, though...

Yeah, a bunch of us did I think. That keyboard of mine is still running strong. As far as I remember last time I looked on Amazon that sale was certainly over.

Yep. The sale is over.

Too bad for those looking to pick up a new one. I have two friends who also picked one up then. I also have a friend who already had one but picked up two more.

I'd like to think that I helped out with quiet moral support, somehow deserving the same reward?

 

Okay but would have been cheaper to have wasted my money on the keyboard.
On its way.lol
Serious though thanks people.
Ooh a Roo from down under.

I'll be sending that case of Queensland finest to you!
