I notice the 650 and 700P are listed in the compatible devices and wonder if the 680 would work. If it is at all an option, the original XTBTUE (with 4 rows, numbers on function keys) is the model I recommended. It is the original design (in MoMA) and very compact, portable, cool, etc.. The Sierra is a later model that, I believe, was designed for those that didn't like the fact that there are no numbers keys. Personally, they traded all the cool factor for this functionality upgrade. XTBUE at Newegg $84.99: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16823203005 I bought it and had/have had no problem (except having to return my Treo because I discovered Bluetooth functionality was non-existent on my device) XTBUE at manufacturers site $149.99 http://www.thinkoutside.com/stowawaybt_product.html Sierra at Newegg $79.99 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16823203009 Sierra at manufacturers site $129.99 http://www.thinkoutside.com/products/sbt5e/sbt5e_product.html If it is incompatible with the 680, sorry for the misinformation. I am a 700p owner.

Not sure if they still have it for that price, but that's what I paid for my Stowaway Bluetooth. Did I mention I love it? It is in the MoMA, so believe me the design is A+. Some people (engineers, etc. doing lots of numbers) miss the 5th row of number keys but that would have been overkill in my book. > >-----Original Message----- > >From: J Messeder <[EMAIL PROTECTED] <mailto:jmesseder%40comcast.net> net> >Subj: Re: [Treo] Treo keyboards >Date: Sat Jun 2, 2007 7:03 pm >Size: 1K >To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] <mailto:treo%40yahoogroups.com> com > >Staples (they have a local store) has a bluetooth kbd, but it has to be >ordered.
