Keyboard for C500??

[Guest dreamweavel]

Does anyone know if and when there's gonna be a keyboard for the C500? I really miss being able to use my E200 Elektex soft keyboard and haven't heard of any equivalent yet for the C500... :?

Is this the product in question?

Will it work with the c500?

The compatibility list on the website does say Microsoft Windows Mobile 2003 under the smartphone section 8)

So who's going to be the first to try it on the C500 :wink:

but the only 'phones they mention are the XDA type rather than the SPV type - £70 might be a bit much to throw away on the off chance....

After looking at it again I noticed this...

Smart Phones:  

Microsoft Windows Mobile 2003 or Symbian devices such as Orange, T-Mobile or O2, XDA II;  

Qtek 2020

(Note that Smart Phones may require a software download and/or a Socket Bluetooth SDIO card.)

So it does sounds like they are talking about WM2003 PDA's (NOT MS Smartphones) :evil:

[Guest dreamweavel]

The E200 needed a software download for the Elektex soft keyboard which contained the driver and calibration tool.

As for the SDIO that could be for phones that don't already have bluetooth capabilities...

Maybe this is all they mean, it could be ok still (he says optimistically :-s )
