The 680 driver is brandy new -- v4.2, announced a couple days ago. I
bought the keyboard from Newegg June 3, then found out iGo had no driver
for it. I hung onto the promise it would be released mid-July.
It was.
It's not very good.
Thing is, I write. A lot. Which is why I got pEdit (really cool,
BTW). I got the keyboard to preclude carrying the laptop everywhere I go.
But accuracy counts, as well, and that's what's missing from this
driver. What I need to find out is whether it's me or the software, and
what can be done about it.
I've been snooping a little looking for a direct-connect keyboard of
the type I had with my old Palms. You plug the device onto a plug that
folds up from the keyboard.
Unfortunately, I haven't so far found one.
