Palm unveils new Bluetooth keyboard
Posted on May 21, 07 07:07 PM PDT
Palm has just dropped a new accessory for owners of the Treo 650, Treo 680, Treo 700p, Treo 700w, Treo 700wx, Treo 750, Tungsten E2, and T|X. This Wireless Bluetooth Keyboard folds up for easy transportation, and yet opens up to reveal 5 rows of full-size keys for easy touch typing. A couple of AAA batteries can power this baby for up to five months before requiring a replacement. The Palm Wireless Bluetooth Keyboard currently retails for a cent shy of $100. I wonder about the naming convention though - why call it a "Wireless Bluetooth Keyboard" when we already know Bluetooth doesn't connect via wires? Food for thought.

The "dock" is there only if you need a place to set your palm. The keyboard will still work if the unit is not on the dock, and is nearby.. i.e. charging.

Why does this keyboard benefit from being wireless, if you're going to dock the Palm into it anyway? Why not just have it use the regular Palm connector, save batteries, save your Treo battery (simply turning Bluetooth on kills your battery life even if you don't use it), and save paying the licensing fees to the Bluetooth Consortium.
There are places where Bluetooth is great, but this doesn't seem like one of them.
