Configuring A PDA

After installing the drivers on the host device you can go ahead and make your individual keyboard settings. Parameters such as response delay or repeat rate can be adjusted. In addition, you can assign certain applications to specific keys. At the end of the day the Stowaway Universal Bluetooth Keyboard will work nicely for you as long as you don't have really huge fingers or fingers that fly too fast over the keyboard.

Conclusions

Only people who need to create longer emails, SMS messages or word processing or spreadsheet files will benefit from the Stowaway Universal Bluetooth Keyboard. However, given a choice between composing with the keyboard or a fully featured desktop, laptop or notebook computer, we would happily take one of the latter three every time. The longer your documents get, the more you should ask yourself whether using an ultra portable laptop would be a better choice for every day communications, even though such laptops are considerably more expensive than a PDA plus the Bluetooth keyboard.

Although the compatibility list on ThinkOutside's website is rather long remember that a driver is required for each device and the keyboard might not work with a specific current or future device for lack of an appropriate driver. For instance, we could not get a Toshiba PDA to work with the keyboard.
