The ideal accessory

**TheMarco** · 04-14-2011, 11:40 PM

After seeing the CrackBerry video of the PlayBook being controlled by a BT keyboard and mouse I started to really hope that some vendor will offer a keyboard + trackpad combo thingy. How awesome would it be to sit on the couch and surf the internet with the PlayBook connected to the TV and just a little keyboard on your lap?

That would be nice, but how about an HDMI/charging dock?

But what are you going to watch TV on then?

Logitech has one...

HDMI+charging dock and BT keyboard w/multitouch touch pad would be awesome

Give it some time im sure a after market company will make an hdmi/charge dock. im holding off on getting the OEM dock for now =)

Im so hoping I'll be able to connect to my slingbox, and then watch on a TV if I have access to one when Im where ever, that'd be sweet

I mean doesnt that just make sense? Im waiting on one to be available before I buy an accesory....because that should have come first.

I have the Logitech board. It is a nice product. Very lightweight but solid enough for regular typing, etc. The trackpad is slick, too.

I picked this up last night, just happened to see it randomly in a store I was in.

Shao, do you think that touch pad will work for gesture as kevin displayed with his mouse? I like the style but would want this function to work.

I havent been able to try it out yet, I dont see why not. It works fine as a mouse on my PC. But once I test it out Ill post back.

Now that looks pretty cool.... Apparantly it works with the PS3, and if it works well with the PlayBook I may well pick one up myself.

How is it to use? Comfortable to type on?

Thanks Shao. I was going to wait on the BB keyboard but prefer the looks of the VisionTek. I like Logitech products but that keyboard just looked to large. Just ordered the VisionTek through CDW. Got a good price and it should be here about the same time as the PB.
