I don't know, sometimes it can be fun to speculate. Up until this 
point I didn't think I was speculating, everything I've said is true. 
The part that I got wrong was misreading Plynth as plinth in the 
first message. I was adding information for someone who was setting 
up Director to work with a plinth style of kiosk, and if you were 
doing such a thing you would have the option of using USB devices. I 
see now, with your assistance, that you're talking about a particular 
model of kiosk, and so what I've said doesn't apply to that model.

Incidentally, the kiosk I'm working on is planned to have voice 
recognition at some point, so a pick up phone to keyboard typing 
would be a useful feature!

I hope I didn't confuse you too much about the Plynth, and that at 
least other people setting up kiosks should know that USB keyboard 
simulation is a much easier way to go if you are setting up a new 
kiosk.
