I Need a keyboard

(1/6) > >>

paxham:
Something portable (roll up?), comfortable and economical.  I am about ready to pull the trigger on this.

but it looks a little small and there are no reviews.

birdastrompgman:
I would personally avoid membrane keys, and stay with conventional spring-loaded keys. If you go with your choice, let us know how it works out.

  Hi.

     Has anyone tried this  http://www.ebay.co.uk/sch/i.html?_trksid=p5197.m570.l1313&_nkw=nexus+7+keyboard&_sacat=0&_from=R40   sort of thing and are they any good?

  John.

The cable arrangement is a bit ungainly, the keys are quite short travel and you may need an adapter, but it is pretty good for the money. There is similar bluetooth arrangement out there somewhere with a detachable keyboard, but it is rather pricier.

I agree with John, the membrane keys are cool for the first day or two, but they are definitely more problems than they are worth.  Looking at the posted eBay page, I like the third one down, the one that costs £23.99.  It makes it work very similar to a laptop, which could be quite useful.
