I have T-Mobile MDA.
This days I've hanged on Flexis keyboard - veri nice thing..... BUT THEY DON'T make version for HTC's devices.
SO - I've bought one Flexis FX-100 keyboard for 3800\3900 iPAQs (because it's connector differs from XDA only by wiring)

So - as I found on Keyboard - there's was:
Green - 7 pin (COM-RXD)
Red - 12 pin (COM-RTS)
GROUND wire wire - 22 pin (GND)

for XDA\MDA
on this sites connector's scheme I do this wiring:

Green wire - 10 pin (COM-RXD)
Red wire - 9 pin (COM-RTS)
Ground wire - 2 or 17 pin (GND)

and now becomes time to set up driver. I've done that. BUT AFTER I TRY TO START DRIVER I've got error message that driver can't open port (com port as I think). And that's no matter connected keyboard or not.

So - does anyone do same and does anyone already connected this keyboard to XDA\MDA?

Thanks. I'll give additional info here on request.

I think the answer is as follows:

Basically, diable the IR receiving check box under settings. The PPC phone only has one COM port, and the keyboard driver, and the IR driver are jockeying for the same port. Disable IR autoreceive, and soft reset. It will work fine then.

Was it difficult to re-wire the Flexis keyboard.
Can you list the exact procedure?
Any possibility to post some pix?

Did you use the driver for the IPAQ 3800 that came with the keyboard?
