It is what it is. It's a USB keyboard that you can plug into your PS3 to be able to type instead of using the clumsy SIXAXIS controller to do it. It's a time saver and a great relief on the wrist. Also, it's a must if you want to put YDL on your PS3.

My only gripe is that the NUMLOCK key doesn't stay on. Once you powerdown the PS3, it doesn't keep powering the USB, so anything connected to them that does not have a battery will go, too. This means that the keyboard powers off completely, so when you go to type in numbers next time, you got to keep putting th numlock key on. I know, a small issue, I could use the numbers on the top, but I like the 10 key.

Is this the keyboard's fault though? Not really, it's in the design of the PS3, but Logitech KNEW that when they made this board, so they could have made the default for the NUM as "ON" instead of off when you power it up.

Other than that, it's exactly what you're going to need to type with ease on your PS3.

It helps in typing names in games and in the web browser, but still some "main" keys don't work, such as "Esc", "Pg Up"...
And you will feel the lack of a mouse, meaning you'll need to have the controller all time with you, even if you are just in the internet.

Pros:
-Durable
-Long cord (8 feet)
-You know it will work with your PS3
-Price

Cons:
-Plain design (but at least it's black)
-An included palm rest would have been nice
-No included instructions on what keys do what (check out the PS3 manual at the official PlayStation website for some internet browser keyboard shortcuts [Support->Manuals->PS3->System Software User's Guide])

Notes:
-You will still need to use a PS3 controller to use certain functions, as far as I can tell
-This might be obvious, but you can also use a USB mouse with PS3

This is not a cordless keyboard, and there is no mouse, mini-receiver, dust cover or CD. It's just a standard keyboard with a medium length cord to connect to the PS3.

I am very satisfied with this keyboard. The connection cord is long enough and the keys are a regular size. You do still need to use a PS3 controller to act like a mouse, just like on a desktop computer, but it's easy. The price was well worth it. I like to go on the internet and this keyboard makes it easy. Also, I use it to type information that is needed when I download CD's to my PS3. I highly recommend this product!

Product overview says cordless??????? stupid LIE

No usb adaptor at all

LiE LIE LIE dont buy this thing

Unless u like a cord laying on the ground, dont buy this thing

the key board is nice for PS Home for chating "or fighting with those every so many pricks" it is the size of a reg key board very smooth typing its better than the one im using right now on my pc to right this lol the only down side to this key board is that it has a wire it would be alot better if it was wireless but hey what can i say i only paid $12 for mine and it is way worth it

I purchased this keyboard for my PS3 because i was sick and tired of having to enter everything into the playstation using the controller to select every letter. I previously had a wireless keyboard which was just fine but I got sick of needing to replace the batteries. This keyboard has a long cable so there is plenty of slack for you to use this even at a pretty good distance from your PS3. It has also taken quite a bit of abuse. It has been dropped, left under piles of junk, tripped over and stepped on, even had a glass of water or two spilled onto it and it still works great. And all for 20 bucks, a bargain. If you want a wired keyboard for your PS3 this is the way to go.

This product is -not- a wireless keyboard and mouse for the PS3, it is a Logitech Deluxe 250 Keyboard (With cord) for the PS3. Honestly, I hope whoever wrote the product description gets fired, as I bought this product based on their faulty information

My husband has big fingers so getting one of those keyboards that fit on the PS3 controller wasn't an option. Now he can chat quickly with his buddies who play with him online. He loves this thing. It's a regular sized board that feels like a standard keyboard so you don't have to get used to a different size, the keys in slightly different places, etc.
