Hey, I need some help!

I am making a wireless keyboard. What you do is you put a program on your Palm Pilot, OS 3.0+, and a program on your psp, the program on the palm pilot has a keyboard that you press a button, and it sends the information to the psp to be used as a wireless keyboard through IR
I am also going to include some source code, so dev's can encorporate it in their programs, so the programs can be compatable with the wireless keyboard program on the palm.
but i need some help with HB++, Handheld Basics (it uses the same stuff and commands as VB). I can't figure out how to make it so the palm sends each character. I dont know if i want it to quickly turn that single character to a txt and then send it to the psp to read, or if there is a way to actually send over 1 character through IR. any suggestions?
and im sry this is kinda hard to understand, and is very sloppy
and dont post this on pspupdates.qj.net

and here is a sample screen of the program for palm

That is through WiFi
not IR
more people have a palm pilot than a wifi keyboard, so my version, if it ever is completed, will have more users. nothing against his works

**myschoo** · 01-19-2007, 04:43 PM

no...it works through IR

Oh, it seems as though it works through wifi because it has an intena...
oh well, i contacted him because he had an account on qj, maybe we can work something out

I think more people would be willing to drop 40 bucks for the keyboard as opposed to the 100+ for the PDA.

Plus the keyboard would be more efficient and easier to use.

Not to deter you from working on this. There are still the people who already own PalmOS compatible PDAs that would find some use in this.

**GuitarGod1134** · 01-20-2007, 04:37 AM

What about the people who already own PDA's and dont want to buy the keyboard?
EDIT: woops didn read your last sentence.

**crait** · 01-20-2007, 08:54 AM

Yeah, so if someone just comes into needing one without any supplys itll be better for them to use the keyboard, while thisll be better for ppl who have a pda already
so it kinda cancels out
moneytoo said i can check out his source for ideas on how to get it running

**JaSo PsP** · 01-20-2007, 09:58 AM

This idea is UTTERLY pointless!
