Heres a Keyboard w/ Ctrl,ALT,FN AND F1-F12 Keys

I just started tooling around with running WIN95 on my TP2, the installer prompted me to install a keyboard .cab called "VGAKey".. obviously the name tells you, its VGA.. youll see in the pics in Portrait though its really not an issue, small but HIGHLY functional if you need use of Ctrl, ALT, FN, or the "F" command keys... Landscape, well thats a different story-Youll see in the pics below...

anyways i didnt know how to open up the installer and yank out the cab, so i dug around on the web and im pretty sure the cab below is the same version from the installer..

Hope you guys get some use of of this.. Especially the people afraid of the RhodiumKeyboardController.. no need to re-map keys anymore, just turn on VGAKey for what you need then go back to TouchInput or whatever keyboard you prefer..

**disclaimer** now the site I found this on, well and a few others I checked its validity against, says the DEV stopped at Winmo5.. but as you can see its running fine on my 6.5.x build.. just thought Id throw that out there..

I never understood how to use RhodiumKeyboardController so I will give this a try thanks and thanked

Just wished they keyboard was a little more appealing but I guess beggars can't be choosers! Unless a brillant mind at PPC could do something with it

Whats EZ input?

This keyboard is too small for my fingers you have to use the stylus that came with the phone to use this keyboard. Except I lost mine

i mapped it to the send key(hold).. and you use <input panel> as the function your mapping..

EZInput is the default touch keyboard that came with the tp2.
