Hi,

This very cheap keyboard seems good enough for what I want to do with my xbmc setup.

Now is the question... will it work. I have some experience with Chinese hardware and usually they are pretty good supported by Linux. Often better then high tech solutions.
No problem to waste a few bucks and be a guinea pig, but if there is already someone out there who tried this please let me know what to expect.

If not I will probably buy one next week.

More expensive but claims to support Linux. Seems to have a better build quality. Still prefer the one above though, but if that one fails to work this might be a nice alternative.

Well I'm sure it will be fine "out the box"

Bought a no name keyboard\mouse wireless combo from Tesco with their "Technika" brand and you just plug in the receiver to the USB port. Both mouse\keyboard work fine as if you had a normal one plugged in.

They both will have the same compatibility most likely, the MCE keyboard certainly won't be a genuine "Windows Media Center" keyboard though, just so you're aware. - As in to say it won't have the firmware in the rom that has the code so it is detected as a genuine one, just a normal keyboard.

Just checked ebay again and now I saw the price I thought it was, was a the bid.
I hate that!

I just bought the iPazzport.
