4 out of 5 stars Really just a plain ol' keyboard   November 23, 2008
 1 out of 1 found this review helpful

Pros:
-Durable
-Long cord (8 feet)
-You know it will work with your PS3
-Price

Cons:
-Plain design (but at least it's black)
-An included palm rest would have been nice
-No included instructions on what keys do what (check out the PS3 manual at the official PlayStation website for some internet browser keyboard shortcuts [Support->Manuals->PS3->System Software User's Guide])

Notes:
-You will still need to use a PS3 controller to use certain functions, as far as I can tell
-This might be obvious, but you can also use a USB mouse with PS3
-Now that I have a keyboard, I've been able to install and mess with Linux on my PS3. Try it, it's fun (but also frustrating).



5 out of 5 stars Keyboard for PS3   August 16, 2008
 1 out of 1 found this review helpful

I am very satisfied with this keyboard. The connection cord is long enough and the keys are a regular size. You do still need to use a PS3 controller to act like a mouse, just like on a desktop computer, but it's easy. The price was well worth it. I like to go on the internet and this keyboard makes it easy. Also, I use it to type information that is needed when I download CD's to my PS3. I highly recommend this product!


4 out of 5 stars It is what it is.   April 5, 2008

It is what it is. It's a USB keyboard that you can plug into your PS3 to be able to type instead of using the clumsy SIXAXIS controller to do it. It's a time saver and a great relief on the wrist. Also, it's a must if you want to put YDL on your PS3.

My only gripe is that the NUMLOCK key doesn't stay on. Once you powerdown the PS3, it doesn't keep powering the USB, so anything connected to them that does not have a battery will go, too. This means that the keyboard powers off completely, so when you go to type in numbers next time, you got to keep putting th numlock key on. I know, a small issue, I could use the numbers on the top, but I like the 10 key.

Is this the keyboard's fault though? Not really, it's in the design of the PS3, but Logitech KNEW that when they made this board, so they could have made the default for the NUM as "ON" instead of off when you power it up.

Other than that, it's exactly what you're going to need to type with ease on your PS3.



3 out of 5 stars does its job...   June 11, 2007

It helps in typing names in games and in the web browser, but still some "main" keys don't work, such as "Esc", "Pg Up"...
And you will feel the lack of a mouse, meaning you'll need to have the controller all time with you, even if you are just in the internet.
