infrared keyboard for Palm/and other.

The is being offered by Pocketop for an infrared connection, thus being able to type on the full keyboard and be on the internet and / or e-mail.

Has any one tried this keyboard or know of any other keyboards compatable with the M500 palm that will alow full keyboard functions and be connected to the web?

I tried the keyboard. I found the concept excellent. Found the keys too small for me. The keyboard when folded shut is only slightly longer than the Palm 500 series. To get a feel fold a piece of printer paper in half. Now lay your Palm on the paper with the top of the palm on the fold. Draw a line around the Palm. Cut out the piece that represents your Palm. Unfold the paper and imagine that is the keyboard and that the last one half inch on each end has function keys. I wasn't able to get comfortable. I was not able to get use to the keyboard moving around on most smooth surfaces. Great idea, well thought out keys, but too small and light.
I prefer my Palm folding Keyboard. I have to type email and then take away the Keyboard and hock up the modem.
