iGo Stowaway Keyboard and iPad 2 = Awesome

#“iGo Stowaway Keyboard and iPad 2 = Awesome”

Wayyyy back in Feb 2008, the iGo Stowaway keyboard was being end-of-lined due to its non-HID compatibility and I managed to snare one for £18 in the UK. It had previously been north of £100.

It's one of the best purchases I've ever made. Over the years I have used it with a Nokia N770 tablet, an N95-8GB phone, a HTC Desire, Boxee/XBMC on our TV PC and now, drum-roll, hurrah, it works on the iPad2 too!

 

 

Yes of couse it's as stable as a ball on top of a cone in that config, but with the iPad tilted up on the smartcase, it works beautifully too.

Now to jailbreak the iPad so that I'm in control of it, instead of Steve from beyond the grave.
