Other keyboards

Unfortunately it doesn't have any hook or system to fix it into the open position, and this makes it impossible to use it comfortably on non-flat surfaces, like on the knees.

The keyboard comes with an attachable stand (which includes a reflector that's not needed for Px00, see the bottom of the page), but it can be used without it, laying the phone down or with the SyncStation (see the photos on the right)

The signal reflector

Some PocketPCs and Palm devices have their Infrared ports on top or don't have enough angle. For this cases, a signal reflector is hidden in the back of the stand. In cases like the P900/P800 in which it really isn't needed, it can help improve the signal.

The other keyboards

This keyboard looks very similar to the PoketOP keyboard (which doesn't have official support for P900/P800 altough there are third-party drivers). The main differences are that the SnapNType adds a fifth row of keys for the numbers and other special characters, while the PocketOP has the numbers in the same keys of the QWERTY row, and you need to press the Shift key to enter numbers. Hence the SnapNType, when closed, is 17mm longer and 8mm wider than the PocketOP, although both are 14mm thick. The PocketOP only has one Infrared beam so presumably the range and angle is smaller.

In the future, ThinkOutside may develop a Bluetooth version of their popular keyboard, the Stowaway. Press release.
