A mini USB keyboard for Iliad

nekokami · 11-14-2007, 08:39 PM

Cute! Who's the vendor?

Edit: "TabletKiosk", I guess. I should click on the images first.

Did you have to install a driver to get it to work?

I'm thinking of buying this keyboard, and I'd like to hear some experiences with iLiad? Is it working out for you, people?

Thanks!

Cool! This led me to look on EBay for such things -- I did a search for "mini usb keyboard" -- and I've just paid out the princely sum of £6.98 for a rubber usb keyboard you can roll up. I'll let folks know how well it works with the Iliad. If it plays nicely with Abiword, I need never lug my laptop about again! :-)

So, all I need to do is first install the program from your link and hook up the keyboard?

You must install the program in CF or SD/MMC (I think only unzip is necesary, now I don`t remember).
Conect your keyboard.
Trun on your iliad.
Run from counter list the program (only one time, if you run it two you have the same key two times), and all its do.

So does this mean you can't use a keyboard unless you've got an expansion card? I was hoping I could manage without one...

No, I actually installed the driver on the internal storage, so no expansion card is needed.

Is it necessary to have the shell hack to run the driver?

I'm glad to report that Targus Universal USB Portable/Foldable Keyboard works fine with iLiad

http://www.targus.com/us/product_det...?sku=PA875U01X

I bought mine from eBay, one can find quite an affordable price there.
