Any good tips on a very portable (foldable? pocket size?) wireless keyboard for the x50v?

I might even consider an add-on thumboard if such a thing exists.

The ThinkOutside BT keyboard is very portable and works well. I got mine from amazon for about $90.

I use the ThinkOutside IR Wireless Keyboard. It folds up to about 4"x 6"x 3/4" and works GREAT for $70 US. While the BT version is nice, I could not see paying so much when the IR versioin works and uses less battery power. I installed the driver and was up and running in a few minutes. It is great, and gets me that much closer to not needing my laptop.

All Ineed now is Photoshop CS for PPC!!!

i have been using the TOBT keybrd for sometime now. it is generally quite good. no lag, good size, easy connection.

i use it in lectures and am happy with it. there is only one minor problem. when typing numbers, u have to hold the blue Fn down and press the relevant key. sometimes when typing real fast i will mistype a number and instinctively go to press backspace while holding on the blue Fn. this unfortunately is the short cut for 'off' and my x50v will switch off

I use the ThinkOutside Bluetooth Keyboard, great keyboard.

If anyone has info on thumb keyboards, I would like to take a look at them.

Can someone confirm that the Axim x50v can use the Think Outside BT keyboard simultaneously with a BT phone connection to the Internet (for posting to forums like this one or responding to emails)?

Thanks in advance!
