Think Outside Stowaway Bluetooth keyboard

Not just a pretty face, Think Outside's Stowaway keyboard has plenty to offer Pocket PC and smart phone owners. Read on to see if you should get your hands on one.

Compact and sleek design; comfortable keyboard layout; included carrying case and batteries.

Pricey compared to other keyboards; no support for Palm devices until December 2004.

Fashionable and functional, the Stowaway keyboard is the perfect accessory for those who want to do more with their PDA.

Think Outside - Stowaway Universal Bluetooth Keyboard

There are less expensive PDA keyboards to be had, and you will need Bluetooth on your PDA of course. But for sheer elegance as well as enabling touch-typing speeds, the Stowaway Universal Bluetooth keyboard is a very usable choice.
