There are rumors tha a psp keyboard is coming out in spring.
Dunno if it will come out though. I guess we have to wait, wish and see tongue.gif

psp keyboard
Stalksy
Sold out and no longer available?

Great idea though but I want it in white.

yeah just noticed that myself... froogled psp keyboard and thats what came up, then googled it and came up with this...

In an unsurprising move, Logic 3 has canceled its PlayStation Portable keyboard peripheral, an add-on meant to offer gamers a key input system whose main usage--I can only guess--would be for communication with others. Based on the picture I have seen of the unit, it fit underneath the screen and folded up, possibly acting as a screen protector as well.

The cancellation was blamed on Sony and a lack of information provision on its part. In order for the keyboard to work, Logic 3 required access to a number of command protocols in the PSP. Sony was unwilling to release these protocols, meaning the project was dead in the water.

Anything that requires Sony to give up a few commands from the internal workings of its devices is going to get frowned upon. With all the trouble hackers are causing Sony through firmware vulnerabilities, you can bet someone would find a way to take advantage of any command protocols that were released. The only way we'll see a PSP keyboard now is if Sony releases one themselves.


So looks like the only hope of a keyboard on the psp is with sony... fingers crossed, hopefully MjW turns out to be right with the spring release biggrin.gif..

killdozer1827

Stalksy
Not really sure how much use it would be.

I guess when you need it it would be really useful...
fallen99
It would be weird but kool I want one lol for aim on psp
Iceboy
i think it's cool and would be ideal for FPS like Socom and using the wasd movements
ZeroX24
how do you think it's gonna work? USB or via wireless?
iluvme
ehh, idk i think thats kinda stupid, like the keyboard for it will just look funny cause its about the same size as the psp and even though i dont like the number pad keyboard on the psp, im def. not wasteing money on this..
Stalksy
Dont think that wasd will work on this keyboard.
DonDesperados

ZeroX24
in my opinion, it seems more like a one time use thing then it's thrown aside
jaredknight

There isnt one yet for the psp, so youre not going to find one on ebay.....
Dawg
People who say this is pointless.....your stupid. Sorry but your just too simple minded and one dimensional to think of any good uses for it.
For those who think there is a keyboard, THERE IS NO KEYBOARD!!
Sony wont release any information needed to create a keyboard, but wont create it themselves. A keyboard would definitly be one of the top accessories for the psp.
mattanson
There are IR keyboard apps available to use IR keyboards w/ the psp, but they haven't found a way to use the keyboard in regular iso/umd games or the web browser yet.
foeoid
a keyboard would make things so much easier. that's actually why i prefer my ds over the psp.
IIIdanteIII
Well it all down to sony they stopped logic 3 from developing it so unless they do it cant see one coming out for the psp, Even tho i would buy one like a flash i spend so much time on the internet on it but a pain to use without keyboard. heres hoping sony do.
ilovesex
this keyboard is a great idea no more manual typing in the small txt box on the psp....just hope the keyboard keys are big enough for the larger fingered person
ctrain92
i definately would spend money on this especially for internet maybe now i could chat with my buds on pspwebbrowser.com or something like that but this would be tight
spr1409
i think it would be good, but i cant think of too much that you would need it for
DudeOnFire
why would you need keyboard for? and i have never heard they will make a keyboard for psp?! blink.gif
darkshadownet
i dont think it wouldve been useful, it would have bee kinda awkard dont u think?
Brett-619
Pretty useless imo.
XiaoAZN
Wow a keyboard... thatll be cool tongue.gif.. but is it really necessary. you be the judge.
sura2007

qb007
Andymac84 is right, all plans for any PSP keyboard were canceled a long time ago.
ThatDudeWithTheFace
Poo.... a psp keyboard is just what i need right now
Allsorts111™
When i used to play my PSP on a regular basis i would have brought they keyboard at the earliest opportunity. Now however, i feel that i simply dont need one, as the games i play do not require a keyboard. Besides, i hardly play my psp anyway.

Yes. However, its has an Internet browser- meaning a keyboard would benefit those who use that function..making url entries and chat rooms easy and quick to use..making the PSP's Internet browser easy to use.
Most notably, the PSP can use many instant messengers meaning communication is swift and easy.

sony is being gay about all this they should just let others make products for the psp

Thats how it seems. However, at the end of the day things really are not that simple in the world of technology....
