I need this keyboard!

It's small, wireless and has a lid which makes it cat proof. I'm about to make the jump to having my TV as the only display hooked up to my GBPVR machine. This keyboard will make that a loit easier.

I'm a big fan of Logitech. They have never let me down.

I'd rather install a keyboard tray in my entertainment center. Smile

All I have to do is sort out receiving the IR signals from the Sky STB remote Smile

They were a free upgrade for UK Sky satellite users to try to get them to use email. I think you would only find them on UK ebay. I haven't sussed out how to receive/decode the IR signal as yet. "sky navigator remote" is what to look for.

What happens when the dog listener comes on? They'll have to get you to change the channel Big Grin

LOL

I got woken up in the middle of the night a couple of months ago by a terrible beeping noise. Got up, discovered the noise was coming from inside my GBPVR machine. After poking around in the dark for a minute or two I noticed the cat sleeping on the keyboard. Since our cats are huge monsters of more than 25 pounds each, he managed to mash several of the keys down.

Now, with all the furniture in the house, plus several cat beds to choose from, why would the cat decide to sleep on a hard plastic, bumpy keyboard? My theory is that he did it because he knew he was not supposed to.

These cats better hope my girlfriend stays healthy. Their cushy lives depend on her sticking around. Big Grin
