PDA Keyboard

Ok, I know there have been several topics on this same similar post but of all the ones I found using search, none of them have been given an answer. Well, anyway, on with the post.

I found this perfect (for my setup, maybe your's too) Keyboard to use with my in car setup. Its very small and actually folds to make it look like case. The only problem that I found is that its for a Palm PDA and dont know think its for use with PC. Has anyone found an adapter that will convert the PDA cable to USB or PS2? This is most definitely in EVERYONE's price range and would be ideal for my setup.

Ive looked through several pages on the net to find it (including manufacturer) and didnt find anything. Hopefully someone will have some kind of answer.

Thanks

If you noticed Fellowes has made a new folding keyboard. It was designed for the Tablet computers, and is a folding keyboard with a usb connection. I have found them at Comp USA only so far, but im sure they are around.

Ok, mp3z24, that looks really good. Do you know anything about it or did you just find it somehow on the net? I wouldnt mind ordering it if someone had actually ordered from there and such. It looks like its exactly what I want but still kinda scares me. Besides, why is the ps2 connection female instead of male?
