Attaching a normal keyboard to the GTC

Has anyone had any luck getting a ps/2 keyboard on the GTC ?

Can the we ssume that there is a normal keyboard interface somewhere on the board and has anyone taken their Siltek 7100 receiver apart and compared it to the IR receiver on the GTC in order to isolate the keyboard interface ?

i would say make it easy on yourself and use a USB keyboard...no point in reinventing the wheel

yah BigDog, I'd like to know what's going on with the kbd. I like the wireless kbd but not the mouse thingy. I'm using a USB mouse and I want to use the second USB for the USB to network.
I tried the websurfer IR kbd and a Chicony IR kbd and neither are compatible with the GCT's IR kbd. I have an IRman but never used it. I wonder if it could be used to find out any info about what the kbd is generating. It would be nice if we could reprogram some chip in the kbd or in the GCT so we get normal keystrokes out of it.
