I just purchased a Targus Universal IR Keyboard for my palm pilot. This is a piece of shit.
Why?
1) The key placement is really awkward and particularly the space keys.
2) There are no up or down keys and instead there is a mini-mouse that really just acts as a scroller. To move the cursor you have to use your stylus. So instead of typing, be prepared to hold you stylus in your mouth (seriously) because if you want to move around a lot in your text you'll have to stop typing and use the stylus instead. Very annoying.
3) It holds your PDA very delicately with these three thin plastic holders. I haven't taken this on a plane yet (but intend to for an upcoming trip) and I am worried that the movement of the plane will shake the PDA out of the holders and onto the floor.
The only good thing about is that its portable.
I'll use it more and see if my attitude about this piece of crap changes, but one thing is for sure - first impression is that this was not a good buy (there are very mixed reviews on amazon and other sites).
