Ok...ish
I got this keyboard as a birthday gift to connect to my Treo 680. I works fine most of the time but it has this annoying way of disconnecting from the Treo at the most inconvenient times. The problem here is that the only way to reconnect is to disable bluetooth and do the whole "reconnect dance". This particularly frustrating when I am in class typing notes and it happens.
I also think that it sometimes resets the phone and this is even worst, because at that time I have to wait until the phone reboots (and if you own a Treo 680 you know it can take a while to come back up)
....When is does works though, it is a beautiful thing to have. Just beware.

great addition to palm
This keyboard works well with my palm tx. I travel with the palm tx instead of a laptop, it is much easier. The keyboard makes it easy to send e-mails.

Don't buy for the Centro!!!
DO NOT BUY THIS ITEM TO USE WITH A PALM CENTRO!!!! I ordered this to use with my Centro, and it doesn't work. After spending quite a bit of time on the net researching this problem, including on palm's own forums, and spending quite a bit of time on the phone with palm, it's become apparent that this is a well known problem with this device working with the Centro. You download the drivers, and it works the first time, but after you fold the keyboard closed, it won't work again unless you reload the drivers or maybe even have to do a hard reset!!! And palm calls this being "compatible" with the Centro!!!

too small
This would be great if the keyboard wasn't so small. I have small hands, and I type for a living but I just cannot type comfortably with this keyboard. I'm giving 3 stars because I think it's a great idea...just an idea who's time has not come.

Works with Vista
I just received this keyboard a few days ago for my Palm Centro and am able to use it with Vista. I am really impressed with it so far, but I've only had it a few days. I did have to download the driver from the Palm website. The CD for whatever reason would'nt work and it kept saying that I needed to install the palm software which I had already done. Otherwise, I think I'll love it.
