I was surfing around looking for new toys and came across this...

http://www.pcliquidator.com/palmkb.htm

They say it's a Palm keyboard but it's made by 3Com and sure looks like my Audrey keyboards. Might be worth $15 if you need one or want a spare.

The more interesting question here is, does PC Liquidators have some sort of software for a Palm OS to use the Audrey keyboard? If so, I'd be very interested! I tried my Audrey keyboard out on my Handspring Visor, no go. Surely, if it worked without modification, we'd have heard about it by now!

I wrote to PC Liquidators, they got back to me very quickly with an answer once before on a hardware purchase, I look forward to being able to post a response here soon.

Dill, they got back to me, and told me "I have not tested these, but have been told by my supplier that they work. I am waiting for confirmation that they actually work as well. We will be pulling them from sale tomorrow if we can't verify the information." Sounds like some sort of supplier misrepresentation. I informed them that there seem to be a lot of spare Audrey parts out there, like the touchscreens (why no spare power supplies or styli!), and mentioned about the keyboards on eBay for five bucks apiece.

If somebody could figure out some software to make Audrey keyboards work with any other common IR device, they would become a hot commodity.

PC liquidators doesn't appear to have Audrey keyboards anymore. Also looked on ebay, etc. Anyone know of any current sources?

Might wanna send a message to the seller and see if they still have them.

Thanks for the tip. I visited the the Centrix website (http://www.centrix-intl.com/)where they have an option to select product by ebay auction #. The keyboards are still available to order for $4.99 ea.

They are back on Ebay. 50 of them @ 4.99 each.

Ends on Valentine's Day ;) Wouldn't that be a sweet gift.
