[NTLK] Using a standard PS/2 Keyboard on a MP2100

[Newton's Café]

Wow, what an awesome device!
But I was thinking morein a little package to install a driver and use a
standard keyboard thru a dongle... But first of all we have to know how the
FreeKey was made inside... Maybe too much I think! Someone wants to
dissasemble his own FreeKey? Possibly not. :-)
