Pros: Wonderful for very quickly putting data into my PDA.
Cons: Very difficult to dock the visor onto the keyboard. I'm afraid of breaking a connector.
The Bottom Line: I do recommend the Targus Stowaway keyboard but, be very careful that you do not break the connectors.

| probono's Full Review: Targus Stowaway (PA800C) Keyboard |
This is one of the best purchases that I've made since I bought my Handspring Visor. The keyboard is very small and lightweight. It is the same size as the Handspring Visor. It folds and opens very easily. The keyboard has a very comfortable feel when typing on it. I suggest that you turn your system sounds off on your PDA to be able to type quietly and discreetly. There are some functions that you will still need your stylus for.
Since this keyboard runs on the batteries inside your PDA, it also causes a very alarming battery drain. I suggest keeping extra batteries with you for this reason.
The keyboard can not be placed in your lap. You will need to put it onto a flat hard surface.
Docking the PDA into the keyboard is a slight challenge. I worry about breaking a connector. It does not just snap easily into place.
I am still glad that I made this purchase. This keyboard has been great in class and at meetings where they provided a "table" for me to place the keyboard.
