PC Keyboard Connected to PSP

An anonymous reader writes "A hardware engineer has managed to successfully connect a full-sized PC keyboard to the Sony PSP handheld. It looks as if the hardware modification was done with several different xlink cable connectors modified to interlink with each other. Obviously, the software side of things is not complete, but this is still a very interesting modification." The real question is what killer apps will come out of all this PSP hacking. There has to be more than just MAME emulation.

    Fuck that! If you want a PDA go buy A FUCKING PDA. Geeze, you'd be the stupidist looking executive walking into the board room with your PSP and fullsize keyboard with taped ends. It also defeats the purpose if you have to put one part of the PDA down so you can type on the other part.

    Seriously, that's one of the stuipidist knee-jerk ideas I've seen come out of slashdot commenting in a while, and that's saying something!

    For starters: if it has a keyboard, it's not a PDA-- it's a handheld
