In a previous message, Rolf Brakvatne typed vigorously:

>Any possibility of a Palm wireless keyboard
>(Infrared) working with a Newt?

Short answer... no.

Longer answer... depends on whether the keyboard protocol is the same as
the Palm III keyboard (which works with Daniel Padilla's Stowaway
keyboard driver) and what type of IR communication protocol is used.
Perhaps Eckhart or Daniel can speak to the technical bits... I know that
a driver can be modified to speak other keyboard 'languages', but whether
or not the IR is Newton-savvy?
