All,

I have a Pocketop wireless keyboard for my IPAQ 5550.

Since I installed the ROM update from HP in April, the drivers for this
keyboard seem to have a problem - about half the time I select the keyboard
I get a hard reset, lose all my data, and have to reinstall everything.
Needless to say I have stopped using the keyboard.

I now paid $9.95 for a "new" driver from Pocketop, but they have sent me the
same driver that I already had.

Has anyone else had same experience and what are my chances of getting a
refund from Pocketop, who seem to be operating in a rather unprofessional
way by not providing any obvious information on their websit about whether
paying for a new driver version will actually be a newer version than the
one you already have.

thanks
Patrick.

Isn't it nice that they don't even put the version of the Pocketop driver
for the devices nowadays...

You're better off purchasing a new keyboard at ThinkOutside... A BT one will
be nice.

Is a BlueTooth Keyboard now working with Windows Mobile 2003? I thought
that does not work because if the lack of the Human Interface Profile in
the BT stack of WM 2003 ?!?!?

bye
Marcus.

One from ThinkOutside, one from PocketTop and another from HP... and I know
there is another one... but I'll have to confirm that...
