Roll up keyboard?

I was just curious if anybody has successfully use a USB keyboard on a WM phone (specifically the 2125). I would really love to be able to use one to belt through some emails while sitting in an airport at 4 AM waiting for Budget Rental car to open up like I'm doing now!

I don't know why it's off Cingular's site (hopefully it's just a stock problem and not a sign of a recall).

Thanks,

Just curious...

Do you use T9 for your input method? It takes some getting used to, but you and it quickly learn about each other and it is quite remarkable how well it can work.

yes, and I'm getting better at it. But sometimes if I have a lot to type using one of those roll up keyboards - I just don't know if they would be compatible with the 2125.

what about itech's bluetooth lazer keyboard?

I don't have the 2125...I have a 5600. But I have the Think Outside bluetooth keyboard. It works FANTASTIC and is completely transparent as a device. It doesn't fold up quite as small as the rollup keyboards...but it folds into a neat compact form that's easy to carry along.

I can highly recommend it for anyone who wants to type with their phone.

P.S. My favorite rollup keyboard was the one that rolled around the Palm computer, making a "leatherette" case in the process. Ingenious solution.
