IRDA Keyboard Driver Developed For Nokia 3650
gletham writes "This article gives details of a nifty project where the developer shares his story of the development of an IrDA keyboard driver packaged for the Nokia 3650 phone. It supports the Pocketop and the Palm Wireless Keyboard. Source code is available for download and even better, the driver has also been ported to the P800 as well... very cool!"
I earned it.
Wake me up when they have a Bluetooth keyboard driver.
I guess this is neat from a purely technical standpoint, but it doesn't seem too practical to me; the 3650's IR port is on it's left side, which means that any kind of IR keyboard would be pretty tough to use. BT seems like a much more useful technology in this application.
(Note to the TrollKore folk: I apologize for hijacking your ASCII art but I thought it was great. I'm not official TK, but as the "PEE PEE/POO POO HOLE" guy I thought I'd help you guys out. I hope you all succeed!)

Having been frustrated with the P800's input system after using email and an ICQ client got me interested in this, but also P800's IR port is on the left side of the phone.
As the parent suggested, bluetooth should be used for this. Indeed, considering the cost of a BT module these days, why put IR on new gadgets at all?
But I'd really like to replace my laptop PC with an Apple PowerBook. Nokia, however, doesn't make their software for Mac. (Seems strange--two really cool companies, whose stuff doesn't talk to each other.) Does anyone know of a way to make the 7250i work as a modem for a PowerBook?
