Makes sense, what with the power button and backlight functions to
deal with. I suppose I could play around with the 4 or 5 strand and
maybe get lucky and rig a serial interface, but that one is more
likely to be power/light functions and maybe the 12 strand is some
sort of souped up serial... But then the function keys may not work
and that was what I was really hoping for, a quiet, nice keyboard
with functions keys I could use with my 2x00. I don't suppose
anyone's got a schematic of this laying around somewhere?
Nope, thought not.
Back to dreaming.
