Gets the Job Done [Posted on 2005-09-23]
This keyboard gets the job done, compact, folds away nicely. The downside is that unlike most othe PDA keyboards it plugs in instead of using wireless or Bleutooth. It also lacks a power source (ie. battery, Ac adapter) and can drain your PDA's battery. The main positive is that it is compatible, the only keyboard compatible with this set of HP products. Oh one other thing, if you're using POCKET PC windows 2003 or newer your gonna need to download a new driver from HP's website, as what they packadge with the product is now old and no longer compatible.

Nice keyboard as long as it lasts [Posted on 2006-03-23]
I first bought this keyboard in 2004. I used it from time to time and was quite pleased with it until certain keys suddenly no longer worked. Hewlett Packard replaced it as it was still under warranty. A few months later, the same keys (P, O, etc.) suddenly stopped working on the replacement keyboard. The ribbon cable on the right side of the keyboard (inside, you can't see it) is about 1/4 inch too short so that opening and closing the keyboard puts a tension on the cable which eventually causes it to break. It could possibly be avoided if you open the keyboard slowly and very gently. It seems to be the only keyboard that does not need batteries. I would consider buying another one, but it's too bad that HP didn't add another quarter inch of play to the cable.

Foldable Keyboard [Posted on 2006-04-17]
The foldable keyboard is perfect. It workes perfectly and everyone that has seen and used it is impressed. Thanks.

Good Keyboard! [Posted on 2006-11-06]
This does the job. It does seem to be a little delicate, so I open and close it very slowly and carefully, but once it is open, it does a great job. I had a little trouble with repeating keys at first, but once I turned on the keyboard sound, I can tell when it is happening before I look up and see 500 X's on the screen. It was worth the money.

Great for getting schoolwork done while away from my desktop! [Posted on 2008-07-16]
I bought this keyboard for my iPaq rx3115 and it has been a godsend for me to work on my schoolwork when I'm nowhere near a desktop. As others have stated, yes the keys are small, but I got adjusted to it almost immediately; I even like the Microsoft start button which works the same way as the desktop when I need to open up certain programs. Next to the stand, there's a port to connect either the OEM sync cable and wall plug which is needed when using the keyboard since it does suck up power from your iPaq - which is the only con that I have. To anyone who is looking to purchase this keyboard, make sure to go to HP's website to download the drivers for it or else it will not work - you just need to install the driver on your desktop, then sync it to your iPaq....then off you go.
