Foldable keyboard mod.

---

Hey

Does anyone know if its possible to have some kind of splitter so you can use your foldable keyboard AND have it synced to PC?

I do a lot of testing on the device, and keybaord input is very useful, but don't like having to unplug from keyboard and recradle everytime I need to transfer over a new build of the program.

I'm thinking of opening up my keyboard now... only just got it... but it would be so much better if I could still be cradled.

Anyhow, if anyone knows if its technically possible, ie, does the keyboard use serial and the pc sync USB only, is there any real possibility or am I dreaming.

No, you're not dreaming: a USB connection to the PC and a serial connection to the keyboard can co-exist. I would buy and modify a serial cradle if I were you, since the USB wiring is in there: only the small USB connector inside is missing. You could also just make a Y cable that hooks to the unit on one side, and to the USB port and the keyboard on the other: not as nice, but much cheaper solution.

OK, I just received some nice plugs for the device, anyone know where I can buy sockets? So I can make a part that goes between the keyboard and the device, without ripping open the keyboard and desoldering stuff.

Is the connection socket a standard part?
