Bad plan. Return that garbage ASAP. There is nothing worse than a laser keyboard.

Get yourself an iGo Stowaway if you need a keyboard.

What do you use for home automation? The orbiter project?
Thanks.

I use mine most of the time just as an internet browser, as a truck driver with limited storage its alot easier than a laptop, as a music & movie player though more of a novelty with those two... at least till I get the a2dp working
also as a gadget to see how many people I can get to ask, what kind of phone is that?

Ha Ha! People ask me that all the time! It just goes to show you how mobile this world has become.

Besides the usual email, internet browsing and music player i use it a lot for reading articles/books/manuals, is good to have something small in the lab that i can carry around and place anywhere. I'm working now to keep some references and calculators as web pages (tell me what you think).
